I did it because why pay for Spotify and for YouTube music if I was going to pay for YouTube premium anyways. The one thing it is missing is when you are at a party on Spotify can have a shared playlist where people can just add songs to it from their own phones. But YouTube can’t do that. It also won’t crossfade songs which Spotify does. But I don’t feel like I’m missing out because of those reasons.
What is YT premium and why would you pay money to use YT? It's the best free service that still exists if you have an adblocker. A lot of content has baked in ads now, but you can skip or just view something else.

I've learned what Youtube Premium is: "YouTube and YouTube Music ad-free, offline, and in the background"

For me, that's nothing as I can already view with no ads, and download whatever I want.
