I've used most of these and quite frankly they are not good. Each of them quit working randomly or wouldn't play certain tracks and wouldn't get an update for days or weeks, at which point I'd move on to the next and get exactly the same experience. They're FOSS apps, and I'm fairly certain Google is to blame for breaking them, but even so if they are unusable for days or weeks at a time I cannot recommend them.

If you just want a YouTube app with no ads and background playback I would recommend PipePipe. It's what I've settled on after trying everything else, and it's fantastic. Google breaks it all the time, but updates very quickly bring it back online.

If you want something FOSS that's closer to the YT Music experience, I don't know what to tell you.

I think you mean ZEUSLAP, HGFRTREE, and GREBEAR.

Oh, and they're all the exact same product.

There's a place out in Washington State called Dirtfish. They call it a "rally school". For a bunch of money they'll give you a kickass Subaru and let you tear around a dirt track for a few days. Looks awesome.
