I read everyone bitching about the ads but I don't get them, and I have access to an awesome music streaming service too.. you know, cause I have premium..

I use Firefox with ublock origin and get all that for free

I won't criticize you for that. If it works for you go for it. I just don't want to.

You don't get access to youtube music with unlock origin. If you pay for a music streaming service anyway then going with youtube music and paying the few extra bucks to get yet premium is a nobrainer.

You don't need to pay for any music streaming service separately? YouTube is full of music without any paywalls

Music playlist and autoplay says what?

Youtube Music worked just fine with uBO the last time I checked, and not a single ad either.

My issue is that Spotify has sort of locked me in by knowing my tastes pretty well. My discover weekly and release radar as essential listening every week and I'm not convinced I'll be able to transfer my fingerprint in a satisfactory way.

You can listen to music on YouTube without YouTube music....

You can download the music easily with yt-dlp.....

It's probably a good idea for me to not try out YouTube music, so they can't show me what I'm "missing" and won't pay for that.......
