Radio Mode for YouTube™ removes the video from the page, leaving just the audio, for less distractions.
Ever listen to music on YouTube in the background? Ever see your computer slow down or hear the fans start spinning?
Simply click the Radio icon in the YouTube player to remove the video. If you are playing a playlist, every video will be blanked out automatically.
* This only works with the HTML5 YouTube player. Videos that are forced to play in Flash, such as VEVO, will not work with the plugin.
* This does not save on bandwidth, just CPU usage and potential distractions.
Usage based on a single video playing. CPU usage reduced by ~50%.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
