  Oh fuck odd Google. Literally the only reason I was paying for your crap videos is so I could play music on my TV uninterrupted.

  YouTube has so many ads now it’s ridiculous. Yesterday YouTube threatened me with the popup even though I have UBlock on Firefox. I’ve seen 10 ads on a 20 minute video. As if the un-skipabble 2 minute long ads that pause when you switch tabs wasn’t bad enough, YouTube is now putting ads in their Premium.

  YouTube is in dire need of a competitor and fast.

    Yeah. Lately in 20min chunks I’ve been getting about 4 ad breaks, so if it’s an hour+ in length…

    And some of those ‘ads’ are 3min, 5min…one was almost 2hrs! Yes, there’s the skip button, but if it’s that long then it’s not an ad and it has no place in an ad break.

  Well, I’m still happy that my grandfathered $7.99 plan from the GPM days still holds up, fully ad-free.

    Watch your card on file. I had the whole enchalada once and loved using the music app and no ads. Card expired for one payment, sub cancelled, and I fixed it immediately. They wouldn’t give it back to me, and refused to refund the larger payment for just Youtube.

  They will always want you to watch more ads. Doesn’t matter that you literally pay them not to. Manipulating your purchase habits is more profitable than your subscription is because your tolerance for ads sets the amount they can sell.

  I’ve had no issues with adblocker for over half a year. Works flawlessly on both browser and mobile browser.

  Isn’t this because the music industry insisted on taking a cut of all YouTube shorts revenue? Like even if their songs aren’t getting played, they still rake in money from views.

  I hope more and more people learn that spotify can also be used to host videos.

      They have clips from songs, so yes, I guess. I’m not sure if anyone can host a video there though.

  I used to pay Google for things back when they were pretty awesome. Haven’t paid them a dime for years now.
