I gave Premium a shot. Then the one time I wanted to use the feature Google said I was paying for - being able to download videos - I found out that it was just a glorified pre-buffer.

Can't view the video outside the youtube app or the website, source video file encrypted ✅️
Can't view the video if you havent connected to the internet in 3 days ✅️
Does less than your average youtube downloader that you can find for free with one search ✅️
Literally just saving Youtube bandwidth because they destroyed every benefit you would get if it was actually reasonable ✅️

Enshittification isnt just limited to free users folks. Slammed that cancellation button right then and there. Good luck earning back my trust, I'm happy to pay if you didnt scream so loudly that even if I paid, you were going to treat me like shit anyways.

Make sure that google can't kill you without consequences after you bought one month of their subscription.
