I've started using Youtube Premium more since I get music, podcasts, and ad-free Youtube for 5 people. Much better deal. :)
I just wish YouTube Music would get better integration with more services. I really enjoy being able to seamlessly play Spotify on my PS5 while I'm playing games, and listening along with friends on Discord is also way easier on Spotify. If YouTube Music could get similar integrations, I'd probably drop Spotify, since I'm already paying for YouTube Premium as it is.
I subscribed to YouTube Premium a few days ago, after being a long-time Spotify subscriber. It really does seem like a viable alternative.... except for the lack of something like Spotify connect. I can't even control the playback on my computer or TV from my phone. It's like every YouTube Music device is on their own, knowing nothing about the others. With Spotify I could seamlessly continue the playback of the song I was listening to in my car on my phone and later on the smart speaker in my apartment.
I've tried out YouTube Premium a few weeks ago with the intention of replacing Spotify, but it just doesn't do the job. I have a use case where I have one computer playing music, but I want to control it with another computer. I've yet to find another service that does what I need other than Spotify.
Yup, that's another feature I get extensive use out of, too. I'll sometimes queue up some music from my phone to play on my Nest speakers, and switch tracks from my watch. It's just not as seamless of a process on YTM as it is on Spotify, unfortunately. Which is a shame, because Google could really be a serious contender in the music streaming space if they just invested a bit into the product.
Same! And a decent API similar to Spotify, would be nice!
That does seem like a better deal at this point.
Where can I find podcasts in YT music?
It's mostly part of Youtube but you can find it here: https://music.youtube.com/podcasts
Seems like it's only available in the US
Sorry! I didn't know :(
