I do. YouTube premium is cheap, i can add 5 other other people to my plan and they all the benefits, i get ad free music in my car (i cancelled XMradio because YouTube is better) and all my devices like my phone, car, smart tv, computer get ad free shows.

It's a way better service than netflix because Netflix didn't let be add people outside my house. And it's way better than Amazon prime, because that chat extra flfor ad free but you still get ads!

I'll support any company that gives me a cheap ad free plan that i can share with the family outside my house with no issues.

Yeah, not having ads in the phone app, the TV app, the music app on the phone or in the browser is really nice, I love it. Also got that for all my friends and family.

Never paid YouTube a dime though :)

how can I do it on the tv app? I have a Google tv and and a mibox and I absolutely hate watching youtube on those bc the fucking ads are over a minute long sometimes.

There’s an app for Google/Android tv called smart tube next. It’s pretty easy to install and works wonders. It’s made me use YouTube in my tv a lot more since I installed it.

Exactly. I will pay for things that I want. If you do not sell them to me I will get them some other way or satisfy myself with other things.
