YouTube has been steering users towards subscribing quite aggressively in recent years by steadily increasing the number of ads one sees on the platform — both the skippable and the unskippable variety. The Alphabet-owned company also recently started cracking down on ad blockers by disabling the video player completely for those who use them.

The price of YouTube Premium, which offers a mix of user-generated and original content (including a ton of music), is higher than most music streaming services, but lower than your typical video streaming service. Spotify, for example, starts at $9.99 per month, while Netflix's ad-free tier starts at $15.49 per month.
