I seriously wonder if anyone would really _PAY_ for the user experience of YT Music.

It is one of the weirdest media apps I've used in a long time. Never fully fit for purpose, always "okay, somehow works".

I'm betting there's weird licensing issues around music on youtube that means google has to have a separate app for it.
