10 seconds? Are you using a 56k modem?

The problem with caching YouTube video lists is that they change. A user's subscriptions and playlists are cached, and updated when the user performs an action that alters them, because caching makes sense in these cases. It does not make sense in cases where changes are made server-side. The YouTube API would need to offer some kind of push notification for it to work.
