    I’m in the camp that says you should really pay for premium. It’s so worth the money. For every premium user that watches a video the creator gets a pretty good cut. Something like 55%. Blocking ads doesn’t really hurt the creator too much. Your mainly just sticking it to Google. But if your someone who watches alot of YouTube consider premium, to help your favorite creators more. Especially you get Music included.

        There is a YouTube lite subscription avaliable in some countries that basically only disables ads and dont have music and some other things. Its 7€/month in my country (12€ for normal premium).

      Man, everything is a premium subscription these days. I’m just so done with modern monetization schemes thst nickel and dime. Everything from heated seats in cars to content in games that we’ve already paid for.

      I would consider it if YouTube had built in sponsorblock since I find YouTube videos unwatchable without it that I don’t bother casting videos to the TV, and go through other methods to retain sponsorblock functionality.
