Honestly YT Premium has been a thing for a long time and it's done the opposite. There used to be exclusive shows that were made public later. (i.e. they were made public the day after i paid for my subscription)

I like YT Premium (and Twitch Turbo for that matter) for two reasons: they support creators (wayy higher CPM than ad-supported viewers), and they support the platform in a way that makes them less dependent from advertisers. If more people subsribed to YT Premium, their incentives would lean towards paid members and away from advertisers and music labels.

Having said that, i have ethical problems with both Twitch and Youtube, hence why i don't subscribe to either and subscribe to Nebula instead. It'll do until PeerTube becomes usable.
