Oof I think this service is only worth it if you have a family plan and everyone helping. That is how I personally make it reasonable in terms of pricing.

    I’m in the UK and it’s already too expensive imo.

    Would be great if I could just pay for no ads YT without YT music.

    In fairness, the amount of YT that I watch on TV/iPhone makes it worth the cost, but any increases and I’ll probably just cancel and watch less YT, which isn’t a bad thing.

    Or maybe just look at getting one of those Turkish subscriptions for like £2/month

      I would subscribe in a heartbeat if I could get a cheaper subscription without youtube music.

        Yeah, it’s just absolutely useless for me.

        I’ve got a decent Sonos setup and use Tidal because the quality on YT music makes everything sound meh.

          Nope. You only need a VPN on the initial purchase then you can add or remove family members as you wish.

            I don’t think it is possible anymore. If you’ve signed up in the past you’re fine. However, you now need a payment card from the country in order to purchase.

              A lot of streaming services are cracking down on workarounds it seems. Many have stopped accepted disposal debit cards as a means of repeatedly getting free trials.
