    Between the age of my account and the fact I pay for premium, if they ever ask for ID they can go fuck themselves and I’ll go back to as blockers and fresh accounts

      I still have the original Google Play Music All Access intro deal of $7.99/month from 2013.
      They contractually can’t raise the price on me ever. 12 years so far.

        I couldn’t keep paying for it in good conscience when they killed the original Play Music app and along with it: their awesome selection of curated playlists, the best library organization I’ve seen before or since, and the critical one, the ability to upload your own music that wasn’t available already. I just can’t stand YouTube as a music organization platform.

        Edit: Oh! And not to mention the I’m Feeling Lucky button that somehow no one else has managed to replicate.

          I really miss that “I’m feeling lucky” button. I found a lot of good music with that.

        nothing wrong with that.

        you support the people you watch without having to see ads. also, comes with YT music.

        it’s a pretty good deal

          But then you end up giving Google even more information compared to using it logged out.

          And the paying user average revenue for creators is higher than ad users. At least it was when I last looked.

            Tipping your creators 5€/month or smth is even better. No google, Amazon in between, no charges…

        Do you need to borrow a flashlight? It seems you’ve gotten far enough up your own butt that you might need some help finding your way back out again
