I would be fine paying for a YouTube premium account if I could get one for like $3-4 that just removes the ads. I don't want their music service.

But then you have to pay $5 for every funkin service, I use dozens of platforms, that's going to be $100 a month for all of it. It simply isn't feasible, and frankly, this is a systemic capitalist issue, and we need to revolt and tear it down.

I don't get what you think that "realization" changes. I occasionally watch videos on YouTube and I'd be willing to pay a certain amount to watch to those videos without ads. Since they don't offer that, I'm not paying them any money. For the record, they did offer such a plan called "YouTube Premium Lite" not that long ago and they axed it.

Yep. With the 1999 MP3 quality, arbitrary intro tunes, and everything. Such a pity, Play Music was extremely good.

What's worse is that they are folding podcasts into it. Google Podcasts at least had a nice timeline based feed of your podcasts all in one place. YouTube music, to see my podcasts? Open app, tap podcasts, under your shows, click more, then new episodes. And if you finish an episode of whatever your listening to, instead of the next in the sequence, it just starts playing random shit like an animation compilation from a podcast that I don't listen or subscribe to. YouTube Music is trash. I don't need another "Everything" app. Just fuck off and let me listen.

I am pretty sure that yt music doesnt increase the price by 9 Bucks. Lets not push the blame on that.

Family or 1 account?

I'm stating what I would be willing to pay for and how much I'd be willing to pay for it.
