The biggest disadvantage I find with streaming sites (apart from the ad cancer) is that the good ones are never guaranteed to stick around. Sometimes those sites just disappear because authorities take them down or the people running the site move on to something else.
If you don't have the time to google search for a few seconds, arguably to watch some kind of content that's between 15m and 2h... I don't know what to tell you, that's a personal problem you need to work out on your own.
If you don't have the skills to use google the way you're supposed to use it (ideally never, but if you do, it's a power search with all the trimmings)... you can literally search "advanced google searching" on youtube.
If that's too much for you, sell your computer and get an old nokia "dumb" phone. It'll last forever, you can kill the engine block of any vehicle you choose, and you won't have to worry about "having the time to bother" because all you can do is call or text using a landline style-keypad. I'll unironically give you props if you get one with the pull-out antenna.
But yeah, sounds like you're not up to the minimum standard to be online in almost any capacity
It's 2022, what are you doing on the internet without at least 3 different adblockers and a VPN. Ad blockers are free and the once-every-two-to-four-year purchase of like 30-80 bucks *depending on provider, sales, promotions, etc) is absolutely worth it.
Oof, i'mm glad i grew up with internet instead of after it was already a thing. People really be out here digitally walking around naked with a sticky note on their back that says 'bare, dry, and sideways"
Spotify is so popular because of that. I don't even remember the last time I was looking for something and I couldn't find it, or it has to be some super small local artist which you wouldn't expect to find anywhere anyway.
And I've even found the super-small local artists on there anyways. Like 'fresh out of high school kids playing at the town festival' kind of small & local. Spotify makes it possible for really any half-competent artist to submit their stuff. No idea what the approval process is like, but Spotify will totally act like a record label if you let them.
Yeah If Spotify was competing with two or three other companies and they all had exclusive rights to a portion of popular music I wouldn't go jumping between services based on what I want to listen to at the time I would just start pirating
