This article is pretty much an ad for Youtube Premium

But they're just sharing the fact Youtube Premium™ offers a lot of people great benefits, like background play, and music!

And a larger percentage of post operating revenue!

Background play is bloody annoying if you don't use YT for music. I prefer videos to stop when I switch apps, then resume when I switch back. Now they keep playing.

And I'm starting to get recommendations of music that I can't remove or tell it I'm not interested in.

I remember when YouTube had background playback for free. An update broke it, then it was put behind a paywall.
