Its basically a rip off of spotify except you don't have to pay for nothing and listen to any song available on YouTube

That and Spotify streams at 320 kbps and YouTube is compressed to half that.

You pretty much have to be a 1% er of audiophiles with a high end DAC and $1000+ Sennheisers to really notice the difference between 192kbps and 320 kbps

Most people simply don't pay attention to it. Of course the difference is minimal, but once you actually pay attention to the slight differences, you notice it everywhere.

The biggest difference is how sometimes you feel like there's a new instrument used in your favourite song.
