Youtube Music is pretty much just youtube with a different UI - the videos are the same. The audio quality is whatever’s uploaded, so it’ll vary a lot song to song.

Lmao, what? YouTube Music is essentially Spotify with the ability to add YouTube videos to your playlists. It has an enormous music library comparable to other streaming services, it’s not “youtube with a different ui”.

…that enormous library is called “YouTube videos”.

False.

There is another benefit - it can be played in the background if I remember properly.

Oh good, I’m not missing out then. I moved around quite a bit between Deezer, Tidal, random piracy in FLAC until finally landing on Apple Music.

I’ve resorted back to piracy, but mostly cuz my taste in music confuses the hell out of the algorithms: I’m a fan of symphonic metal, and seeding one of those songs as the start of a playlist on something like YT music will land you with a combination of heavy death metal and renaissance fair music.
If I ever find one that can actually distinguish sub-genres of metal, then sign me the fuck up!!
