@balderdash9 YouTube Premium is actually a great value if you're like me and use YouTube Music as your main music app. It's only a few dollars more than Spotify and I get ad free YouTube included.

[–] BigMoe@lemmy.zip 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I agree. I have the YouTube Premium Family Plan.

For me, the price for Spotify and YouTube Premium famil was really close, and getting ad free YouTube and downloads in app for the same price sold it

Plus, YouTube Music lets you add versions of songs on YouTube that aren’t official (at least it did).

So, yeah, the way they push insane ads is terrible, but I like the product

Your comment just reminded me that I've been paying for the family plan to include my father. The same guy that just kicked me out of the house I'd been paying him rent for.

Screw that guy. Enjoy your unskippable ads pops!

Libretube and Innertune for me outclasses both of those without any subscription

Each their own

Yeah, but you get all of the crappy mp3 torrent rips that people uploaded as part of your music list that you pay for. Low quality music stream that costs money? No thanks!

[–] Vash63@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What? YouTube music is professionally sourced music like any other major service. You can upload your own music for personal use, but included music comes from the publishers.

Where did you get that crazy idea?

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think anyone can upload to YouTube music, or at least it's a lot easier than most platforms to get onto, so they have a point there.

There is a recommendation algorithm though, so if whatever you upload is terrible, it won't go anywhere.

[–] Vash63@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Music you upload to YouTube music is for your own personal playback. It doesn't go to anyone else.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean it's much easier for actual artists to self publish than other platforms.

People upload poor quality songs to YouTube. Look up "song name lyrics" for an example. Those songs get mixed in with all the official songs when you're listening on YouTube. Plus their interface just kinda sucks.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, they don't. There is a recommendation algorithm, and it doesn't recommend low quality shite. Their algorithm is actually pretty good.

[–] Jeze3D@mstdn.games 3 points 2 years ago

@Anticorp it has all the high quality uploads of other music services plus songs that are uploaded by users that aren't available elsewhere, but go off.
