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.

I can't leave YouTube premium music at this point. I use it in my cars infotainment and it's cheaper than xmradio

I do as well, and that'll be the hardest thing to lose, if I can't find a good equivalent. Cause I have to swap back and forth from Android Auto to the BT player otherwise, and that suuuuuucks.
