Mine too, would be great to be able to preview any music by playing the
audio from a youtube video through the Squeezebox. Unfortunately the
last time I checked there are some licensing/api restrictions that make
it hard to extract the audio stream from a youtube video. It is
possible, but it would probably not be legal or at least not according
to the youtube licensing agreement. 

I looked at it some time ago and it's definitely possible to extract
the audio if you got the video stream, the problem is to get the video
stream as I think you need to scrape the youtube web site to find it
and they tend to change things now and then to make that as hard as
possible.

Fortunately, Triode came to my rescue and implemented the Spotify
plugin, so now I can at least preview anything that's available on
Spotify even though it costs me $10 per month.
