I just pay for YouTube. It's worth it.
- Marsymars 2y agoThe plans are bad for light users. Something like a non-renewing $3 day pass would be better for me. (And better for Google as far as profit from me is concerned, since I currently pay them nothing.)
- teeray 2y agoJust wait until Premium has “a very brief ad”
- SoftTalker 2y agoI will cancel with extreme prejudice
- recursive 2y agoIt will have the same fate as my Netflix account after they added ads.
- redwall_hp 2y agoThey should let me do that, then. Last I checked, they'll only sell me a bundle with a music streaming service I don't want.
- gizmo686 2y agoYouTube music is basically just YouTube with a slightly different UI. I'd call it more of a marketing ploy than an actual bundle.
- jprete 2y agoI was disappointed to realize how thin the veneer really is. And sometimes a music-carrying video will be unavailable in the music app because YT music and YT as video service apparently aren't subject to the same region rules.
- recursive 2y agoJust don't use it then.
- xigoi 2y agoPaying for YouTube still forces you to use their official app instead of the much superior NewPipe/PipeBender.
- dbrgn 2y agoIf you look at the price tiers per country (https://www.theworldranking.com/statistics/671/youtube-premium-price-by-country/ https://www.theworldranking.com/statistics/671/youtube-premi...), you'll be able to see why - as a user in Switzerland - so far I wasn't willing to pay 250$ every year for YouTube Premium, it"s simply not worth the price to me. With less steep pricing, I'd pay.
