YouTube - Leanback

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself

YouTube Leanback (Free) - Searching for videos on YouTube can get tedious. You don't always know what to search for. Even when you do, you might not find anything worthwhile. After all, there is plenty of inane content on the site.

Do you wish you could channel surf through YouTube like a TV? Then Leanback is the answer. It automatically finds videos it thinks will interest you. You can go back and forth between videos or choose new categories. Just use the arrow keys on your keyboard.

Note: YouTube screens the videos that appear in Leanback for offensive content. However, you may encounter colorful language from time to time.
