It didn't include YouTube Music. It was also offered in a few select countries.
You don't want YouTube + YouTube music but you want Spotify + YouTube? I abandoned Spotify the second YouTube Premium was introduced in my country. I loved Spotify. I started using it back when it was invite only. YouTube Music is worse for sure, but it's good enough and a lot cheaper.
An easy answer, Spotify are where my friends hang around. I would not have any second thoughts to drop Spotify, but for me I love to share playlists, tracks etc with family and friends.
As general nobody use YouTube music here in Sweden.
You're having me confused. I'll never share any playlist and I'm on Spotify, should I leave then?
I use the third party app ViMusic to access Youtube music, not perfect but it works well, looks really good and it's free and without any ads!
Android has Revanced for YT Music, which is what I use. Only thing I miss out on from premium is the automatic local caching of tracks (called downloading officially). But I just use a different app to download music from youtube playlists as mp3 files if I really need them offline.
I use InnerTune
YT Music has a lot of the obscure indie (like soundcloud indie) music I love. The mobile app UX is close enough to Spotify.
I stopped paying for YouTube the moment Google killed Google Play Music and forced YouTube Music on me. Now Google gets no money from me and Apple does because they still offer a true music library service.
