From what I've seen creators say, they get more revenue from a Premium user than they would have if the user had just watched some ads.
- brewdad 3y agoI’m curious about the potential for adverse effects. Let’s say I pay YT $12/mo and Google keeps $3 for their costs. If I watch 1 video that month does that creator get $9? Does the creator get 5c per view from me regardless and some subscribers subsidize others? I wish there was more transparency around what my money is actually buying.
