Not gonna lie, I bit the bullet and got YT Premium almost 5 years ago. Honestly, one of the best purchases I've ever made in my adult life, hands down
-
Purchase? Subscription*
-
I had Youtube premium when it included google play music. GPM was so good...
I unsubscribed everything when they changed to youtube music. Terrible music platform
-
You're going to make me cry remembering my days with gpm. Hands down the best music platform that was.

I've had it for AGES. I agree that ads have been a bit much and many websites almost unusable without Origin. YT Premium though has been fairly solid with a couple hiccups.
Admittedly, I use YouTube as my primary source of entertainment. So the price is easily justified vs other services.
-
Agreed. Plus I know my views pay slightly more to creators than ad-supported views (and far more than ad-block views) so I can feel superior to my fellow man.
-
You could use an ad blocker and give even more to the creators you like via Patreon (or ideally better means).
-
¿Por qué no los dos?
-
Porque YouTube/Google gana mucho más que el dueño del canal por esa transacción, además de que lo hace explotando a cientos de miles o millones de personas en el mundo que quieren vivir de influencers.

I think it's worth it too. People are just weird about paying for a product that supports individuals creative ambitions just because a company takes a cut. Admittedly better content than streaming services most the time anyway.
-
I typically put children's music on YouTube when driving with my kid. Not having to shuffle with the phone to skip ads while in the car is a life saver.

I agree with you but it made me physically nauseous to click the button because I remember a time when YouTube was awesome and free from ads.
-
Is there any real benefit for using premium over Adblocker?
-
Free (legal) movies. Most are stuff I don't want to see anyway, but every once in a while a diamond in the rough pops up
Edit: Like someone else mentioned, YT is my primary entertainment source for a few reasons, so I've definitely gotten my money's worth. I wouldn't recommend everyone get it, but I'm happy with my decision

Doesn't seem like you bit any bullet, you just paid for your subscription giving money away. What's the biting the bullet part for you?
-
Lol giving away money at all, especially to large monopolistic corporations like Google. They don't need my money, they already have plenty
