But I hadn’t considered how necessary that would be. Regarding this specific case - unfortunately, neither Wayback nor Common Crawl has a single snapshot of the URL youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1RY5RYlgymo2ooWvReUmkwCCcGv0l_gF for the full list of 116 tracks.

Or rather, not the videos themselves, but the metadata and links to the video files in the web archive. I don't have servers large enough to store the videos themselves.

What you get for any video ID: metadata (title, description, channel, upload date, duration, view counts, tags), thumbnails, original captions when the archive captured them, and reconstructed URLs to play the archived video file when available. Channel discovery reconciles legacy username/handle eras to a single canonical identity (lots of channels renamed themselves a dozen times — that part was painful).
