YouTube music. But since Lite has ads then idk what it's different. I'm assuming Lite also doesn't have music.

WTF is Premium Lite?

This is literately the equivalent of cable.

It will literally never end.

This is why anyone who was excusing advertising at all is part of the problem and should be seen as a useful idiot.

Stop lowering your standards so people richer than you can be even richer.

Youtube already has music.

Just pick your song and listen to it...

Premium but without the music. And with ads apparently.

No; I don't think there will be.

Christ, premium light is still fucking 8 dollars a month and you don't even get rid of ads. The greed is fucking astounding.

I'll stick to an adblocker, dickheads.

I guess it’s their “pay for ads” tier which sounds fucking stupid to me.

I remember when YouTube Music first came out it was pretty much just the audio from the videos in the most atrocious quality. Has it changed since then?

YouTube music is better than music on youtube, particularly for people with slow or capped internet.

It's Premium, but not really.

How? I use my phone for internet and don't have any issues.

Isn’t this because the music industry insisted on taking a cut of all YouTube shorts revenue? Like even if their songs aren’t getting played, they still rake in money from views.

You're not necessarily streaming video on YT music, just audio.

No, it's worse. With a cable DVR you can skip all commercials.

Premium Sike.

Or, and hear me out: just install a browser plugin and forget ads exist.

I hesitate to name extensions names, but I’ve literally never seen an ad on YouTube.

These companies don’t respect us, so I don’t feel the need to respect them by allowing them to force their meaningless bullshit down my throat.

I don’t use it that much, but you better believe if I go to YouTube to watch a video, that video is the only thing I’m watching.

I feel like youtube is losing sight of why users are paying for the service then.

To me, personally, youtube is useful enough that I will keep paying to remove ads entirely (in combination with ublock). That being said, there will come a time when the value proposition is no longer balanced. Then I will stop paying, and probably stop using it as well.

But as always with Google, I question whether their motive is to kill another service. They're very competent at that specific thing.

They just want users who are paying full freight as they know the ad business is in step decline.
