    YouTube is slowly becoming too controlling of their platform from removing the dislikes counter to limiting background music playback and now also limiting 4k to non premium users, while also showing a ton of ads already. Time to uninstall YouTube

        Mihail White, 18 Oct 2022Seems fair, my display is HD+ not even wqhd 2k. 4k is for r... moreSo, you don't have much money and you think others should pay for 4k?

        Well perhaps one day when/if you do get a 4K display I hope you can't afford a 4K streaming service. Ahole.

          bullying corporations does work!

            Seems fair, my display is HD+ not even wqhd 2k. 4k is for rich people, not like me who use free add block :))) If you can afford a 4k display, you surr afford youtube premium and vice-versa

              they already made more cash with ads...

                YouTube is so bad
                People buy expensive high resolution Monitor phone tablet laptop but can't watch in 4k

                At least they give up on this bad idea

                Still on 720p screen myself so unaffected

                  rip for who had phones or computers have 4k display. google just tried to steal customers money

                    Nothing's stops schizophrenic Google from implementing this scummy 4K premium lock in the future.
