      I already pay for Spotify. They knew exactly what they were doing when they lumped that shit in YouTube premium

      I can't see the value in using youtube for music… it's not like I can watch music videos in my car. That's worth $0 to me, and I imagine the majority. Spotify is better… or apple music if you're on the fruit side.

        Youtube music doesn't have music videos, not sure what you are talking about. It's just a clone of play music after they shut it down.

        If you've already got a solution for ad-free music in your car, sure, obviously. Not everybody has that though.
