Literally just cancelled mine today a couple of hours before reading this. It's great for music discovery but when already paying for YouTube premium which includes YouTube Music, which although has a much worse UX ultimately has the same content. Even if I wasn't getting music with the YouTube subscription when I added up the 50 odd tracks I regularly listen to on playlists and divided that by the cost of a yearly subscription, the economics make no sense.

Personally, I find YT Music's UX much better than Spotify's. Especially when I'm listening to something and browsing for something to add as the next track.

Totally fair. To many people discovery is the feature that the like most about Spotify. If that doesn’t interest you, you’re well off on YouTube.
