        I don’t mind paying but I’m tired of all the price hikes. I was salty earlier today and went through my emails and here’s the timeline of price changes. I was annoyed in 2023 but understood it was the end of my grandfathering price back when it was just music. But then to jump up another 25% after three years? Ridiculous.

        $26.99 - May 2026

        $22.99 - April 2023

        $14.99 - October 2020 (change to YouTube Premium)

        $14.99 - June 17, 2016 (Google Music family plan)

        All the amazing stuff will be shut down in a few years. They will most definitely block access outside if your home network.

        There will be an additional monthly charge of 8.99 for getting access to adfree in your car.

        Best option is to support creators you enjoy directly.

        I’m more worried about people who create content you come to YouTube for. Should they work for free for your entertainment?
