> When you use YouTube Premium, you are paying the creator for each view, and they still show you the ads, and you find it acceptable ?
Yes. Most (though not all) of the channels I watch don't have inline ads. For those that do, the YouTube client makes them easily skippable (tap your finger four times on the video to skip 30 seconds), but usually I just unsubscribe if they're egregious enough. I wouldn't watch LinusTechTips if he paid me :)
> Sounds like you agree to pay for Spotify Premium but still get interruptions in the music.
You seem not to understand that ads come from different sources and pay different people. Platform ads come from the platform and they pay money to the platform. Many platforms let you pay them to avoid these ads. This is what YouTube Premium is.
Separately, the content provider may also include ads in the content you are streaming on the platform. You can try to find a way to pay the content provider for an ad-less stream, but the system isn't as well set up for that situation, at least for video. Podcasts are pretty well set up for this model, and I do pay for many ad-less podcasts.
