The problem with YouTube Premium vs other streaming services is that it feels like you are paying protection money vs paying for a service.

YouTube has gone out of their way to throw ad upon ad on even the shortest videos and even ads on videos are that essentially 30s ads. They tell you if you pay a monthly fee, these ads will stop harassing you. What other benefits do you get? Hmmm maybe they'll let you continue a video with the screen turned off.

Oh you want the old dislike system, no fuck you. You still only get a button that does fuck all.

You don't like YTshorts? Fuck you again, you have no choice but to have it in your face every time you open the app.

This is not a business to customer relationship. This is a protection racket to victim relationship.
