OK - That's so bad you should just hoist that wheel and find what's wrecked! That's IMO way beyond what most CV joints going bad do for noise before totally falling off!
Wheel bearings: With wheel still on and tight no free play allowed. Almost all bad wheel bearings of that hub type will growl when driven shifting the weight of vehicle louder one way than the other.
This is rattling like a loose wheel it's so bad so may be something else totally and would be looking for broken brake or backing plate. Maybe and happens brake will throw a pad off of metal backing plate and sound about like that too so check it all.
I can't recommend driving this car as if that's bearing, brake or CV joint it wasn't safe before this!

I am pretty sure it is the CV joint. Brakes seem fine. Not really making bearing noise

Right - not typical bearing noise. Try this: Hoist and secure car with stands for that wheel so you can get under safely.
Just grab that driveshaft at the metal part and bet you hear it inside the outer boot and shouldn't hear or feel a thing.
You might need to turn wheel to full extremes to make it worse.
Otherwise I'd take that wheel off and just look at brakes first and feel rotor inside and out noting anything out of order including but probably not a sway bar pin broken that could rub - usually not this exact way but look.
If nothing found take that caliper just up and off and look at pads, hardware - anything. It shouldn't be that hard to do just to check that and I highly suspect that. Yes a chunk or whole brake lining can come off backing plate, brake still work but make noise like all hell broke loose even if not worn out but some time on them.
Your video was very good. This problem should be easy to find but as said may need to remove caliper. Duh - if separated do equal work to both sides.
#1 is to find out what - I wouldn't put up with that more than to put it in shop from what I heard,

Yes I think it's what I though - brake pad fell apart. If at all possible it's totally in order 100 miles from home to have it checked and made road safe for even that 100 miles if you wish or can finish at home?
Nothing is for sure until inspected but if pad fell off or broke and still mostly in place brake may feel fine but when if like some I've been driving did that and pad broke away your brake pedal will go to floor a couple times then have a metal to metal brake action again that will stop and wrecking rotor but will usually still stop the car fine - no surety on any of it from here.
Be smart. If you can't even nurse the thing safely to a shop tow it as we really aren't positive of just what.
Good luck that it's a quick and doable fast fix and be on your way knowing it's done,

Nobody ever mentioned the ABS light being on.

I did not see any ABS light on. I am pretty sure the guy said that it was not attached properly, but the noise seemed like it was coming from the hub ring not being tight due to the incorrect torque.
I have had such an awful experience with mechanics working on VWs they seemed to not know how to work on them properly. I will admit VW have a lot of odd things that a lot Mechanic seem to not know how to properly work on.

If the tone ring was damaged or unattached or any problem with the sensor, there would not have been an accurate speed signal from that wheel and there should have been ABS issues.

VW wasn't mentioned at first and not super strong with all their idea. ABS light (amber warning) should have been ON as HT said. Why that came loose who knows?
I'm fairly OK that a direct wild safety issue is fixed but why no light? Most vehicles, any brand will bulb check with key turned to just run and some just while starter is cranking as a "bulb check."
If I were you I'd want to know if bulb is working, why not if not and know that you do NOT likely have ABS now. Plenty don't anyway not the issue you should know or fix that as required or a legality or what?

I am not exactly sure if it was not detached completely, I think it might of been loose or something. They did not explain it well to me, but I am not sure how the hub ring,,came loose. The wheel bearing was recently replaced on that side.
Trust I know what you mean about VWs, After getting my VW I can now definitely see why the Germans lost WWII. There engineering is ok(I guess, not really convinced) but there designs are AWFUL.
They gave me some weird car jack that the so dumb the car fell of the car,, it fits into the side slots of the frame,, but they did not think that maybe the side slots could get bent making the jack useless.
Look at this jack:http://img01.cp.aliimg.com/...XXX_!!1021144244.jpg

Jacks with about any car suk - total last ditch emergencies only IMO.
That doesn't address your ABS issue and if car fell don't see how that knocked of a star wheel for ABS. It wasn't right for another reason.
Find out what the deal is with that. If you don't like VW? why do you have one? Many models of assorted types and the widest selling car maker in the whole world meaning the most places by a lot!
Back to your car. It probably has the wrong 1/2 shaft in it and someone tried to put a star wheel where it was for a model that didn't have one or something? That and just bust the bulb which you've been asked if it worked so somebody wouldn't notice needing the whole shaft for another reason - who knows now how it got that way the noise of it is fixed you still don't know if you have working ABS now or not,
