I am hooked on the music.

There are tools for the music side as well

RVX Music works quite well for me on Android

Honestly, the service is worth it for me. I need the easiest process possible for my luddite wife and kindergartener's Amazon fire tablet. I put my mom on the account too.

But for everything else, yarrrrr.

RVX Music requires manual compilation, right? Also, does it properly play album version of songs? (YT Music ReVanced plays the video version of songs instead).

I don't remember having to compile it and there's a setting to prefer the album version of songs

I guess I will give it a try someday. I originally had a Google Play Music subscription back in the day when it had a cleaner UI(and then Google killed it). I recently switched back to YT Music since ReVanced would usually play video variants.

I don't have much love for YT Premium since the official YouTube app is worse than NewPipe, say. Even after paying, you are shown adverts for purchasing say, merchandise from creators (that counts as an ad in my book).

I will probably give RVX a try once my current subscription ends.
