    Or just ripping the audio from official youtube videos of the song...very simple and easy

    I use ymusic for that. It's an app. That's like a uhhh "program"

    It rips and converts with a button push.

    Yes and I think we all like to push buttons.

    $10/month for Pandora. It works on my phone, laptop, Roku, in my car, and on my bike. I have stations that are over 10 years old and play what I like. With a subscription I can choose to save the entire album of any song I hear. I have over 2000 albums in my library and close to 50 kick ass stations that I have spent years slowly customizing. Say what you want but it works perfect for my needs.

Most people would like to access music and not have to have the youtube app open the entirity of the time. Also, at work sometimes I play youtube on my work computer vs. amazon music on my iphone and airpods. It literally will only play like the same six songs on a loop. I type in a specific song to start and then let it run cuz it auto-plays "you may like" or whatever. It will auto-play a song that I heard just 2 videos before.

    idk. i never use youtube apps,

    i use my firefox browser for almost everything that can be done on the internet. and theres an addon for firefox that prevents youtubes from going off when the screen is off.

    theres a reason everyones eager to push their apps on you, and it aint a good one.

    I might go back to Amazon. I have youtube and it skips off my song list I built and into someones I don't even know. it didn't do that the first year or so I got youtube plus but now its been doing it more and more. So I created a new song list and it still does it. It plays like 6 or 7 songs and then jumps to some music list of another persons mix.

    Amazon is cool when you're driving by just using the alexa ap and telling her to play a specific song or let her find an album.

    Also when driving, if you get bored of Music, ask Alexa to tell you a joke or see if you're smarter than a 5th grader for lols.

    there are other games too.

    Yeah, I guess. It just seems so old fashion to me.

    I mean it's only like $10 a month for premium.

    Today I learned I am more lazy that I am cheap.
