The more you use the api the more of your quota will be used. determine_quota_cost remember youtube quota is cost based not request based.

The cost of the request you are making is going to denote how much of your quota is removed.

If you need more then the 10k development quota you can request just fill out and submit the YouTube API Services - Audit and Quota Extension Form.
