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".

Why are you so sure that your experience is the one true YouTube Music experience, and several other people telling you they have other experiences are "making shit up"?

> which is likely what was done here Incorrect. All of those links are taken from the YouTube Music app on Android via search. Some are contrived, but the point is that there is a wide range of counterexamples to your assertion that YouTube Music is this siloed thing that's only music direct from publishers. Here's a more straightforward example. I search for "action bronson blue chips 2" [1] The top result is "Action Bronson Blue Chips 2 ((Full Album)) - Please Subscribe" from user 'Lpmixtapes compilation and mixtapes...'[2] The official release [3] is a page scroll down. So, I don't think it's reasonable to call people "terrible at search" when these things literally come up as top results in search and are fair game for the recommendation algo to slide into your stream, or "full of shit" when they can give you specific examples of how things you've said are wrong.
