If YouTube premium was $4.99 a month it'd be worth a consideration. But then again adblocking is free and privacy respecting
I actually think YouTube premium is worth its price. Spotify is the same price, but you get less.
I want ad free YouTube but don't want YouTube music. I don't want to pay for extra shit that I won't be using.
I use Spotify way more than I use YouTube. Spotify does one thing and it does it extremely well.
If Spotify added unlimited free Uber eats delivery tomorrow and bumped up the price to $20 a month, then sure, it'd be a good deal but I wouldn't want any of that.
They had that in parts of Europe for a year now as a trial. But they are discontinuing it this month, making us choose between ads, and lots of YouTube premium crap we don't want.
