I tried the YouTube music service and I hated it. It would play the low quality BS that people uploaded instead of studio quality recordings from the bands. It also has way too many live versions of the songs. I also didn't like the interface. My wife and I considered signing up for YouTube premium, but it costs as much as traditional cable. I might as well just get Comcast or something. At least then I could watch baseball without a VPN. But I'm glad you enjoy it.
Having all the live versions of some songs is the best part for me. I love live recordings.
Are you sure you haven't gotten YouTube Premium mixed up with YouTube TV? The latter is priced like traditional cable because that's basically what it is; premium is just YouTube with no ads, basic app features that shouldn't be paywalled in the first place like downloading videos, and YT music thrown in.
The YouTube premium family plan (pairs with more accounts/devices) is a little more expensive at like $23 but I didn't think that was cable tv expensive. All the full-package cable replacement services I know of are around $70-$90.
Ah yes, I was thinking of YouTube TV.
If they wouldn't have that fucked up "same household"-policy for the family plan, I would be all over YouTube Premium. But for me alone it's too expensive (I don't use it THAT heavily) and I couldn't share it with my family that lives in three different places.
