I pay for YouTube Premium. I didn't really want that, I just wanted YouTube Music, but it didn't make sense to just pay for YT Music. I don't want Spotify and Amazon Music kinda sucks so YT music worked best.

Same for me but in reverse.
Remove music, deduct 2-3 € from the bill and I'd be happy enough with it.
Spotify suits my use case way better.

I couldn't justify $14 a month for YT Premium especially when YT Music sucks so much. And it's very likely just going to get more expensive.

If they could stop bundling them both together and give me an option to just get rid of ads, I'd probably go back to paying. But for now, NewPipe is a way better experience.

I actually used to pay for the Premium account in Google Play Music, but disliked YouTube Music so much when they migrated accounts over that I canceled my subscription. Have they improved the radio/music discovery parts at all?
