    I think that’s why a lot of people dislike youtube premium, because it seems they made the free youtube intentionally very annoying to use without it. Similar to spotify where if you use the free version there’s a ton of ads and half of them are from spotify themselves asking if you’re tired of the ads

      It’s exactly this for me. Maybe Spotify and YTP are worth it, maybe supporting them does more good than harm, but there’s no way in hell you’re going to annoy money out of me. If you can’t respect me as a free user, you don’t deserve my money, especially when that money won’t be going to the artists I’m there for.

      Seriously, the best ad is a good basic version.
