This ad just popped up and it should be more infuriating than just mildly, But it's more of Google being Google. How many different tiers of YouTube are there now so Alphabet can skim off slightly higher margins from each user possible? Premium LITE? Really? And I am just tickled by the fact that the main perk is not that it removes ads but that there will be slightly less of them. "Pay us to watch ads" Is the new corporate standard.
lmao. I haven't seen a youtube ad in years, and I use it almost all day, and yet, I don't pay anything for it.
"Pay us and watch ads" has been around a long time. That's what cable tv was. We've gone full circle.
One day, something new will come along and kill streaming in the same way streaming did cable. Once things get this fragmented, something else always comes along to replace it, and the cycle will repeat.
It will be cheap, easy to use, and everyone will switch. Once enough people move over, the big corporations will get involved and the enshitification will begin. It will be adveetised to death, segmented, and people will look for an alternative.
There was a rule back in the 90s that the more words were used in the title of the software the worse it was. Adobe Photoshop was good. Corel DrawMaker 3.5 for Windows 98 Special Edition was crap.
That's actually a running joke with my friends. We always add "2000 professional plus - gold edition" if we want to mock something

"With fewer ads". Long gone are the good deals of the past, all we get know is shit
I prefer YouTube Premium Plus Silver tier. It still has ads, but they are premium ads, which I find go down my throat more smoothly. Anything less makes me gag.
"Buy this other ludicrous thing from us that you don't want for partial benefit on this other thing you hate!"
the main perk is not that it removes ads but that there will be slightly less of them.
It does remove ads in most videos, just not in Shorts, or on music videos. The whole deal is they're essentially un-bundling a music subscription from YT Premium, which makes it cheaper, and is then better if you, say, watch YouTube, but already use Spotify for your music.
Essentially, you don't see any ads when you watch videos, AKA no midrolls, but you might see a small banner ad above the list of next suggested videos to the right of the video player, and if you constantly scroll shorts they might toss some ads in there as well.
Personally, as someone who doesn't use YouTube for music, and doesn't like scrolling shorts, I see this as perfectly reasonable as a way to reduce the cost, especially when you can click the Theater mode button on any video to block out the majority of the suggested videos area by default before any sidebar ad would even make it on your screen.
Great news then, if you get the AI Pro plan they include it free of charge!
How the hell is it “premium” and “Lite”?
It can only be one.

Less filling, tastes great.
The tier makes sense, if not the name. Google insists on including music streaming in Youtube Premium, and Premium Lite is a cheaper tier that doesn't include music streaming. It's missing some other features too, but it beats Premium for people who just want to not have ads and for some reason won't use an ad blocker.
This support page about Premium Lite says it has no ads on "most non-music content, excluding Shorts. Ads may appear when you search or browse". Still having ads on music content makes sense given that Premium Lite doesn't include music streaming.
You forgot to mention that it doesn't allow for mobile queuing either. That was what made me drop my sub as a whole instead of just downgrading. I would rather just use ad block style services such as gray-jay than experience mobile youtube without the ability to queue videos. I use it heavily for going to sleep, and with how finicky the auto play system is for choosing what video it should play next, there's no way I trust it to not absolutely screw my suggested videos.
How many different tiers of YouTube are there now so Alphabet can skim off slightly higher margins from each user possible?
I'd rather have more tiers.
I'd pay for a tier where they had a no-log, no-datamining policy, which they don't currently offer. I'm not demanding that they change their existing tiers. I'm sure that there are plenty of people who are not interested in paying for that and don't care if Google is plonking everything they do into a database. But that's what I'd like, so I'd like to have a different tier.
I like YouTube. It has a lot of content that I like watching that I get a lot of value out of. But I don't like having someone trying every way possible to profile me. Right now, I can't get the first without the second.
🤮🤮🤮
I'd rather pay more for no ads than pay less for a few select ads. This is ridiculous. Just like Netflix's cheaper ad tier. SMH.
