I am one of those suckers (:sigh) who paid for Youtube since it bundled Youtube Music with it. However, today I used the latter’s Revanced version and it was so much customizable. Right from removing menu items to the stupid cast button Google has forced on us; it seems a billion dollar company can’t compete with these folks who make their apps so much more serviceable.

I don’t wish to go too much into the official Youtube client which too is tacked with things like Remix button and what not.

    I agree fully. I basically never download music anymore, because I can get all the music I can think of on Spotify for a few bucks a month.

    I recently started music pirating because I listen to a lot of genres and I want to shuffle them. If I use Spotify, I am limited to their shitty shuffler, but if I download my music offline, I can shuffle however I want. My favorite algorithm to shuffle my huge bunch of music is to shuffle them by genre. Now I get to listen to interesting music with full control over the algorithm used.

    Also, there are frequent power cuts in my area, so an offline library always proves useful. I also visit places where internet connections are not available.
