I have a reminder to cancel before the increase. It was, imo, a good deal for no ads, bolstered creator support in YT (Premium views were worth more than free, iirc), and to get YT Music, which I liked more than Spotify.
For $16/mo, I'll set up ad-free options for YT and I'll figure something out for music.
Tidal is quite good for music. The selection is missing stuff at times, but that usually doesn't last long since I'm pretty sure that only happens when there's some kind of contract renegotiation or something.
Tidal is fucking garbage. You mean I have to pay to have songs fully play? The fuck is that about? Bullshit. Only dumbasses who pay for songs to play fully and not 30 second limits are the tools for that platform.
What's the free music streaming service you use that has no ads? I'd like to try it, I'm obviously in the market.
Lmao buddy resorts to this and then blocks me. What a small human.
Duh, it's called downloading them and we've been doing that since the late 90s. Enjoying that rock of idiocy you've been sleeping under? Do you need streaming services to spoon-feed you content? What a loser.
Look, its an edgelord!
