YT premium is one of those things I'm pretty happy to pay for, because I know the creators I watch are getting much more money per view from me versus someone who watches with the ads.

The actual lack of ads is just a massive bonus since I would have been able to block them anyway. (Well, until this change)

Also, that and I'm one of the 5 people out there actually using YouTube music rather than Spotify
