This was something I wrote into my drafts earlier this week and then yesterday I saw this news item that just. Really demonstrates the problem. Google is moving to a model where if you won't pay for YouTube they continually interrupt your listening with ads, and if you do pay for YouTube they interrupt your listening with injected bursts of "AI". These should both, fundamentally, be viewed as "ads", and the solution for both should be the same: Client-side adblockers. https://arstechnica.com/google/2025/09/youtube-music-is-testing-ai-hosts-that-will-interrupt-your-tunes/
