What is the point of premium except for not having ads anyway?

If you watch for hours a day no ads is a big thing. Otherwise you get at least one ad per video if not more. Plus you get yt music with premium. Plus you can skip ahead over sponsor stuff in videos too.

All of these things are achievable without paying YouTube.

This is not worth paying so much money as they are, asking for.

Being able to download both videos and music is a big one, it saves me a lot of mobile data.

I use 3d party indie apps for it.
