Given a single Google account, you can create multiple YT brand accounts / channels. Each of them will have the Premium features enabled, each can have separate subscriptions, and you can switch between them with the account switcher without logging in/out.

So you can already do exactly what you want with just the single subscription. I'm sure you're delighted to hear this, and won't react by moving the goalposts.

Actually, I very much am delighted to hear that. I will stand by their UI being rubbish though

Sorry! I was channeling frustrations of how multiple past discussions around this subject have gone, and shouldn't have. You were not involved in any of those, and definitely didn't deserve the snark.

I'm sure you're delighted to hear this, and won't react by moving the goalposts

I want to say this snark is unjustified, but I also wouldn't be willing to bet on it.

I wouldn't be willing to bet on it either, but in this case I was very much delighted and am not gonna move the goalposts (ok, maybe a bit, now I want a migration feature to collect my channels into a single account)
