This seems to have become a fad recently and it ruins videos for me. If I want to watch a video of someone talking about something, that's what I want. I don't want music playing constantly over the top of it. It serves no purpose other than being an annoyance.

Perhaps some people like it for some reason. Well, they can add music of their choice. Those who don't like it can't remove the music. So it's removing choice while providing no benefit to anyone. Bloody rude!
 
I have to agree, but you'll probably just get an "ok boomer" response. Fortunately most things I'd want to look at have alternatives without the resident DJ spinning his tunez yo !

For now. I didn't even know it was a thing until recently, so I suspect it's spreading.
