I read everyone bitching about the ads but I don't get them, and I have access to an awesome music streaming service too.. you know, cause I have premium..

I use Firefox with ublock origin and get all that for free

[-] Cortius@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

I won't criticize you for that. If it works for you go for it. I just don't want to.

[-] Knuschberkeks@feddit.de 12 points 9 months ago

You don't get access to youtube music with unlock origin. If you pay for a music streaming service anyway then going with youtube music and paying the few extra bucks to get yet premium is a nobrainer.

Music playlist and autoplay says what?

[-] TheEntity@kbin.social 6 points 9 months ago

Youtube Music worked just fine with uBO the last time I checked, and not a single ad either.

Revanced youtube music

My issue is that Spotify has sort of locked me in by knowing my tastes pretty well. My discover weekly and release radar as essential listening every week and I'm not convinced I'll be able to transfer my fingerprint in a satisfactory way.

You can listen to music on YouTube without YouTube music....

You can download the music easily with yt-dlp.....

It's probably a good idea for me to not try out YouTube music, so they can't show me what I'm "missing" and won't pay for that.......

Why would you admit to making poor financial decisions?

[-] Cortius@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Why is it a bad decision? It's the same cost as Spotify, but I get ad free videos. I don't get this line of thinking..

[-] arudesalad@sh.itjust.works 21 points 9 months ago

It also supports the creators of the video as well. If I had the money I would choose premium over an adblocker just because of that.

[-] Cortius@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

100% agree

Why is it your responsibility to pay the creators? Google is a trillion dollar company and makes billions off of what people post on youtube. Shouldn't they be paying them instead and not you?

Besides, it's only a matter of time before Google takes more and more of the cut that you think you're paying them.
