Openwhyd is an open-source music-curation platform; append ?format=json to its pages and you get JSON lists of user-posted tracks that link out to YouTube, SoundCloud, and friends. This /hot endpoint returns what's currently trending. Keyless, though no CORS header came back on our probe.

Openwhyd: common questions

Is Openwhyd free to use?

Yes — Openwhyd is a free media API. Free tier: Free — no key required. Whether the free tier allows commercial use is unclear — check the provider docs.

Can I call Openwhyd from the browser?

Not directly — Openwhyd doesn't send browser-friendly CORS headers, so call it from a server or proxy instead. Copy the curl or Python snippet on this page to get started.
