Paying for YouTube has probably been the digital subscription with the single greatest return on a dozen dollars.

Content is uninterrupted without having to engage in the arms race. Music selection is great. Random movies are available.

But how is it different than those of us who access it for free? I get a popup asking me to pay once a month but that's about it. Are you just happy to throw your money away if it goes to a giant corporation?

It's a premium service with premium features... ad-free, offline downloads... maybe you should look into it
