Speaking as someone who doesn't have an Apple Music subscription, I think I'll take my chances with YouTube.

Counting ad-blocking as a barrier to entry on HN is probably unfair.

Absolutely, which is why I specified “average person”. I think most anyone on HN could figure it out. But that’s not what Apple is shooting for, I don’t think.

At the end of the day, I just didn’t want come right out and say “rsync, ftp, something something Dropbox”. :-)

If the average person can pay for Apple Music they could pay for Youtube Premium.

I don't think the cost is the barrier they're discussing here.

The point is that ad block is not among the barriers you need to overcome.

I mean I'm the one suggesting it and it's still a pain for me to set up after a few drinks, used to have the Microphones going into the computer and then that being the whole output but we literally just plug mics direct from receiver to speakers because a MacOS update introduced latency.
