It's worth mentioning that this isn't YouTube Premium, this is YouTube TV.

Ah... another subscription that I don't have, lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Oh, I don't have it either lol. It's just that their TV offering has always been much more than Premium.

Heh, speak for yourself. I've been mostly living on YouTube Premium for 10+ years. Certainly better than the crap on cable.

And while the YT ad renevue space has gotten worse over the years, it's much better than the 5 minutes of obnoxious commercials every 15 minutes from cable.

EDIT: Ad renevue, as in content creators shucking outside products, not actual ads from YouTube.

I'm still annoyed that I can't add funds to my account and give them the like fraction of a cent YouTube would get from advertisers rather than showing me an ad. I seriously doubt the revenue they'd get from advertisers is as much as the money if pay for premium. The whole thing is a racket lol.
