YouTube Music definitely has just standard YouTube videos uploaded by random people. It's one of the only reasons I use YouTube Music - listening to vinyl rips of things that were never released in other formats.

When you are on YouTube there is a Music section that includes music videos, random uploads, etc. A lot of people are talking about that in this discussion and it is causing a lot of confusion. That is not YouTube Music. These are YouTube Music- https://music.youtube.com/ https://music.youtube.com/ https://apps.apple.com/us/app/youtube-music/id1017492454 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/youtube-music/id1017492454 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.youtube.music&hl=en_CA https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.and... Random rips that people upload on YouTube are not available on YouTube Music (again, not the Music section on YouTube, but the separate YouTube Music service). The only music available is through a sanctioned distributor like Amuse, and of course the labels have direct feeds to these services.

  You are mistaken. User uploads, unofficial remixes, mixtapes, anime music videos, entire video game soundtrack rips, etc. All in the YouTube Music app. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc-MRIbtyP8&si=m5A0o6QLombdYrrG https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc-MRIbtyP8&si=m5A0o6QLomb... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=bPtF-hvruDQ&si=iK5SGGZMup2DhhNZ https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=bPtF-hvruDQ&si=iK5SGGZMup2... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=tMWvoJjflfc&si=Uqz_a-dzl4qm5QC_ https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=tMWvoJjflfc&si=Uqz_a-dzl4q... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=3dBLZXt18U0&si=ExNqN60VG6e5WfRG https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=3dBLZXt18U0&si=ExNqN60VG6e... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=I6pPpKjA-FY&si=jlVoeBhuXGHQzyKa https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=I6pPpKjA-FY&si=jlVoeBhuXGH... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=xddHYuXEXik&si=k0tWdhMzv-HNr68- https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=xddHYuXEXik&si=k0tWdhMzv-H... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=1Oq5BS8E5D0&si=u6OEMhWODWZkR7MH https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=1Oq5BS8E5D0&si=u6OEMhWODWZ... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=YQRXJVF8lic&si=JR6tiZVBLR_sjg2H https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=YQRXJVF8lic&si=JR6tiZVBLR_... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=oKD-MVfC9Ag&si=tRHXKwDzB7QZn5kz https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=oKD-MVfC9Ag&si=tRHXKwDzB7Q... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=u8GCIBWztoY&si=z9JRzBBZp-6tCDKz https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=u8GCIBWztoY&si=z9JRzBBZp-6...

    To +1 the general "youtube music is youtube": every time I've given the YT music app a try, I've started listening to [what I wanted] only to end up in random youtube mixes (not YT-music-mixes of just studio-uploaded stuff, youtube videos titled "mix" or otherwise, sometimes 10h long, with accompanying looped graphics and sometimes VPN advertising segments and like-and-subscribes strewn throughout randomly) after a few songs. YTM is YT plus music, not a separate thing. It's very clearly intentionally forced to be that way. It's the primary reason I think it's an awful service (the general UX is a very close second). It does, however, have the benefit of niche user uploads like this existing because it's YT.

      Bizarre. Either you used YouTube Music about a decade ago, or you're just making shit up.

        You can verify the claims for yourself, just check those links above. They're not even slightly abnormal.

        I believe the links. The guy is searching for fringe stuff. You can even copy watch ids from YouTube, which is likely what was done here. But if you are any ordinary user and you are searching on YouTube Music for a playlist and somehow you got a 10 hour random person's video, either you're spectacularly terrible at search, or you're full of shit. https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_k1r7WuL0tHO3MlQoTXGDXZ3DXtfgwD0R0 https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_k1r7WuL0tHO3... https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=RDCLAK5uy_nEp0Hf_BHJeTM5kZCA3jGWjdGVU0K0hrc https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=RDCLAK5uy_nEp0Hf_BHJ... https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lkXb3jknk1xqavs24LqPK3PKJBwG9iiek https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lkXb3jknk1xq... https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lSPskzOTM8LqxczYvA_dmxxHV59VyUnWM https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lSPskzOTM8Lq... https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=RDCLAK5uy_lsb8F7kGME8Z61OLDR_9pdk0GGaxGPkcA https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=RDCLAK5uy_lsb8F7kGME... Look, I can link to random stuff too. A couple of YouTube curated playlists, and some of millions of albums. All songs direct from publishers. Zero imaginary ads, or bizarre "videos".
