YouTube Premium is getting more expensive internationally

Well, someone would say that YouTube is getting more greedy than they already are. YouTube increasing their Premium subscription price, even giving bad experience for users using ad blocker to block the ads or using VPN to get cheaper price.
We know that YouTube still usable for free, but the ads get more annoying, as if forcing free users to start a Premium subscription. Even some 30-second ads are not skippable. Maybe this could be considered as money extortion in the future.

Anonymous, 24 Sep 2024Sure, 'cause having YouTube millionaires was all this ... moreDo you say the same about all other professions?
No need to pay for movies and TV shows, because there are enough actors and actresses that are millionaires? Not too mention directors.
How about sports? Better to sneak in or pirate the feeds? After all there are enough fotball, basketball, tennis etc. millionaires around the world.
If youtube doesn't pay them for their content, then someone else will and Youtube, and therefore Google, loose their influence over the global culture.
If there is a youtuber you feel is overrated and doesn't deserve a decent pay day, then don't watch that content.

If aplhabet gets forced to split up and sell youtube, it will likely not stand on it's own as it is now. Either more ads, higher premium fee, less pay for creators, reduced upload abilities etc. etc. And again, the higher amount of freeloaders, the higher amount of ads and higher cost for premium. It's very simple.
Youtube costs a fortune to run and tinfoilhattingly speaking, Google keeps youtube alive despite the money pit that it is, because they get to control what culture to expose us to. What to promote and what to suppress and remove entirely.
I hope Alphabet gets forced to split up sell off parts and that youtube, like X, will be purchased by someone who doesn't spend a fortune limiting free speech.

Making videos with the intention of making money is the signs of a corrupted soul. This is the same corrupted spirit which enables some individuals to get rich just by running around with a ball or by making weird noises with their voices and objects or by pretending to be what they aren't. When the purpose of entertainment is to make money then society will inevitably be destroyed. One side makes money by running with a ball while the other side just watches only to get rush of hormones while getting fat! Why should it be like that? Why don't the latter also run with the ball with their friends which allows entertainment and good health at the same time, while promoting a fairer distribution of wealth in the society? I mean this is how it used to be in the good old days.
Getting back to videos, if they're made with intention of greater causes such as helping people, teaching moral values and setting positive goals, rather than making money society would be a better and less degenerate place.

I've always been using adblock plus/ublock origin extensions for browser, adaway and vanced/revanced extended for Android for over a decade so I've been well protected against AD madness.
Recently I accidentally came across using the YouTube app and boy I didn't know it went that bad these days, needing to watch multiple ADs, each of which are almost a minute long, just to watch a video. It was a kind of shock because ah well I'm not used to ads you know (well none with brains should be).

In india it went from 190 to 300 for family plan. Individual plan is at 180 or something. I always thought it was kind of cheap for the premium, but almost double, that's a bit too much isn't it?

Sorry for apple users but I think their minds are too colonized at this point to think a bit differently

Marco M, 24 Sep 2024That would not make it better, but worse. What you shoul... moreThe main reason people even started using workarounds is because youtube got greedy and started showing 5 ads per minute. So no. The issue is them, not the customers.
