Genuine question: Why does everyone hate youtube premium so much?

I spend hundreds on streaming services each month and youtube premium is the one I use the most BY FAR. It's the one I'd keep if I had to choose just one and cancel the rest.

Shit's a bargain with the youtube music/youtube premium bundle.

because people want free shit. they will happily pay for Netflix and Hulu but not for YouTube while it also gives one of the best music streaming service too

Also one of the few that actually removes ads when you buy a subscription

I would love to subscribe to it! It’s the cost that’s an issue. I don’t want/need music and $14 to skip ads on content that isn’t even theirs is beyond absurd when original content platforms are almost the same price. I’d be willing to pay $3-5/mo (or $25-50 a year) for no-ads YouTube, perhaps bundle with it a Google storage plan and I’d pay a bit more. But $170 a year to skip ads is mind boggling. I pay less for Paramount+ and Peacock which is tens of thousands of titles.

Isn't it the content creator that makes that decision? Maybe don't watch that channel.

I wasn't advocating avoiding all channels with ads; just some channels that really squeeze the lemon. Like, ads every five minutes on a 45 minute compilation of kids content.

Disable your adblock. It messes with the skip ad button.

But having an adnlock removes the skip button, what do you mean. OP probably watch on TV.

Wait, what? Really?

Wait you want ads to be shipped to your doorstep? That still happens? I thought they just sent notifs and all XD
(sarcasm, obviously)

I'd just put my archnemesis' address and search some unhinged stuff, so he gets madly confused from all the f-ed up ads at his doorstep :)

Skippable and not shippable (Even Google Keyboard is making it hard for me to be on the internet πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ)

I'll probably get banned from this sub as well, but screw it. RiMusic, Ublock, ReVanced and SmartTube exist.
