How do I pay?
- modeless 9y agoG Suite for Gmail, Docs, Drive, Calendar + phone support + other stuff: https://gsuite.google.com/pricing.html https://gsuite.google.com/pricing.html Or, Drive storage by itself, which applies to most products with storage quotas such as Gmail and Photos: https://www.google.com/drive/pricing/ https://www.google.com/drive/pricing/ For YouTube, YouTube Red: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6305537 https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6305537 Another interesting experiment in the willingness of users to pay to remove ads is Google Contributor: https://contributor.google.com/ https://contributor.google.com/
- scrollaway 9y agoTo add to this, since I've started using GSuite for my personal account, I feel a hundred thousand times more comfortable with Google. 1. My Google identity is now my real email, the one tied to my real domain that I myself own. That's so much better. I can comfortably sign in/sign up with Google to other sites, have them tied to that email instead of my @gmail.com one. 2. I feel way more comfortable sharing every single detail of my life to Google. In fact, it turns what initially comes off as really creepy, into a useful life service because I'm now using things such as my map activity etc as a service I have a paid contract with Google for. And if I don't like it, I can hard disable the entire service. 3. I have access to a lot of stuff that regular free Google doesn't offer. Things such as undelete email/drive (which has been useful on a couple of accidental occasions), and, get this, support. Live chat and phone!
