YT has a LOT of great live performances: NPR’s Tiny Desk, KEXP’s live sessions, many concert recordings (and not just the terrible handheld cell phone ones).
There are some fantastic KEXP ones. The most recent one that Alvvays did is so impressive…captured all the complexity of their shoe gaze-y sound while being punchy and pop-y
When I go to a “quick listening” of something vanced yt music is my goto. I’ve somehow educated the algorithm quite well despite my weird/contraditory tastes? I’d say people to give it a try if they “just want to listen to some tunes”.
To those dumping on YT for music:

Yes, the audio is not 24/192, but if you can’t enjoy watching these musicians PLAY, then you have issues.
Why would you need 24/192
Those tiny desk concerts are fire. The engineers know damn well how to mix, would sound great at any bitrate
The Dutch channel 3voor12 also has great mixing/productions and quite a few live concerts.

All The king gizzard ones are good too.

T-Pain’s tiny desk concert is amazing
Audio is not even 200kbs , and when I pay for premium people still get nothing ? That sounds like a ripoff
