    Musi (app on iOS for listening to YouTube without ads and allows background listening) has been working for several years at this point. So I don’t see Google doing much about it.

      Google is making moves in this department on YouTube. Could be months, years, or never when these apps can’t keep ahead in the cat and mouse game anymore.
