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.

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

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
