Honestly, if YouTube offered a $5 adfree video plan I’d pay for it. It’s not worth $14/month in my opinion
I think these companies are starting to run into the brick wall caused by disgusting wealth inequality and the subsequent inability to spend as frivolously as needed for a healthy economy.
Youtube would profit off of $2 a month the fact that they need to charge 14 is just greed
How did you compute that?
That's the YouTube Premium Lite plan that they killed off less than a month ago.
I cancelled Spotify and use YouTube for music and videos now so it's worth $14 to me. Just loaded all my Spotify playlists into YTM. Interface isn't as good as other music apps, but it has a pretty insane catalog, especially for stuff like remixes and bootlegs
I'd pay €1 a month. Max. If only 50 million people did the same, they'd make 50 million per month. Must be more than they make now from ads....
