Somehow paying for Netflix is fine but god forbid I want to watch a 10 hour loop of the DS9 intro without ads.

I thought YouTube music was a separate subscription?

~~It is not, unless they perhaps have a YT Music-only subscription but I haven't seen such.~~

Edit: It looks like there is a YT Music Only subscription available, for $3/mo cheaper. I'd still say if you use YouTube any more than just on one-off occasions, its still worth picking up regular YT Premium if you're grabbing the music one anyways, but at least the option is there.

... I don't know where I got this idea. And I just got another month of Spotify too. Isn't there an easy way to transfer your playlists over there?

As far as I'm aware, none of the music services really have a direct transfer option available. You pretty much have to use a third party service to do so from what I found the last time I tried to do a major switch.

Funnily enough, I feel like this is one of those things that are present day "AI" could probably help with, if it were integrated with these services. Realistically you'd just need something to do some OCR of images from your playlists, and match the results - I'm kind of surprised that's not something Spotify, Google, etc have done yet.

Awesome thanks!

As mentioned, third party services are there

There was a YouTube music only tier I was on when I moved from Google Play Music. Eventually I figured out about YouTube Premimum including the music so I changed to that

Oh, interesting, you're correct there does appear to be one which looks to be $3 cheaper. I'll edit my comment to reflect that, thanks!
