And if you pay for Premium you get all features and zero ads. Many of the competitors have paid options that still include ads.
Whether or not Premium is worth it is another debate entirely, but the fact of the matter is that it is simply a better deal compared to other streaming services.

I like that I get music too. I honestly don’t mind my Premium subscription, I get decent value out of it for the amount of content I view. I just wish creators saw more of that money.
I think YouTube has said that Premium, formally Red, viewers do count more for ad revenue and other things like that for creators than free viewers. A streamer I follow I think said they were worth 5x for him
And a portion of your money goes to the creators you watch, and you get YouTube music included. I always say if you’re gonna pay for one service, the one that makes the most sense is YouTube.
You’re not wrong, but that is not the point I was making.
Adblocking YouTube is 100% the best option. I agree there. But if someone does want to pay for membership then YouTube is, by far, the best deal. Their competitors are absolutely horrendous.

Am i wrong to think a premium view is worth a thousand non premium in revenue?

There’s a lot to shit on yt for. But they do actually pay people real money for their work. It’s still surprising to me after all these years.
not neccesarily, not as much as you think, otherwise they wont be relying on brand deal, promotions and patreon. most of thier income comes from them.
Seemingly every video still includes sponsor segments. I use ublock origin with sponsorblock and actually see zero ads.
Correctly configure ad blockers will also get you an ad free experience and without that pesky monthly payment.

Oh hey, me too, except I would never pay for premium. I just don’t use the official front-end.
you can use adblock, instead of paying. ALso the ADs are so intrusive you have no choice to use ublock origin.
