I really liked Spotify, but when they started subsidizing hate speech I left. For the last year, I keep trying different platforms and cannot find anything that works well. I am ok with spending money for no ads. I have very diverse music tastes so want to have different “stations” based on my mood. Any suggestions?
I noticed this, too. But I think it’s a matter of how the search algorithm works along with a smaller streaming library than other services. First it checks the first party audio that YT has streaming rights to. If it doesn’t find it there, then it goes to the general uploads. And that’s where you start getting the music video audio instead of the studio version.
I’ve also found it will offer me playlists uploaded by users that match my search results.
