    Yeah, you get YouTube music plus ad free YouTube. It makes more sense for me, for sure.

      I prefer YouTube premium over Spotify for the same reason, but the feature that made me pay for YouTube is video downloads. I’m traveling a lot and I can spend a flight easily watching YouTube. I don’t listen to that much songs, mostly podcasts and SoundCloud, so I’ll probably pause my subscription when I’m not traveling, if they increase the prices.

      Edit: Revanced looks promising, gotta check that.

        Does it function like spotify? Does it play well with android auto? I’ve been using Tidal for years & I’m very happy with it but if the YouTube version offers a similar experience with no YouTube ads I’d try it out.

        Edit: nvm, it’s more expensive & raising rates soon.
