I'm not surprised. YouTube has a constant stream of new material, curated to each user's exact interests. And more back catalogue than you could watch in a thousand lifetimes. It's definitely the service I use the most.

And if you pay for Premium you get all features and zero ads. Many of the competitors have paid options that still include ads.

Whether or not Premium is worth it is another debate entirely, but the fact of the matter is that it is simply a better deal compared to other streaming services.

Oh hey, me too, except I would never pay for premium. I just don't use the official front-end.

you can use adblock, instead of paying. ALso the ADs are so intrusive you have no choice to use ublock origin.
