They also got rid of my premium lite subscription... I was paying them and now I have to get back to adblock.

They try it out every once in a while in every country to probably gauge how far they can go until users either swap to Lite or quit alltogether by watching with ads or nothing at all.

Banger is, that with Lite you still get limted^tm ads. The fuck?

Still paying the YouTube red price before they changed it, $10 isn't bad for music and no ads, now a days
