Out of curiosity, what would you consider "real" premium YouTube to be? Are you thinking something where the creators get a higher share of the revenue in return for better production values?

Not OP, but I just want videos. I don't need or want their music service. That's the premium I'm waiting for.

That's premium light, they tried and killed it.

Why though? Because when I have a perfectly competent music streaming service already, why do I essentially want to pay double for a redundant music service I won't use? If I could just get the ad free experience for a cheaper price I'd be satisfied, but they add all the bells and whistles on top that I don't care for and don't want to pay for.
