Following the United States in July, YouTube Premium’s international price increase is starting. The Google video is rolling this out slowly across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and South America.

As of November 1, YouTube Premium is seeing an international price increase in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Chile, Germany, Poland, and Turkey. This applies to individual, family, and student plans for YouTube Premium and YouTube Music Premium.

The minute my ad blocker stops working I'll stop using Youtube because 1) I'll never pay for it and 2) I won't be watching ads.

Imagine paying $23/$43 for ******* YouTube especially for those weak incentives. I’m content with my ads.:ahh:  
It’s only a few secs before you can click them off anyways.

at a time when TikTok is their biggest competitor, this really is NOT the best time for YouTube to be treating its users like this

 

all it’s gonna take is for TikTok to create a dedicated section for YT-like videos and people will jump ship

No thanks. It's way too expensive imo. I'm not paying this much money just to watch videos without ads. These companies need to chill.

By that logic it should cost $0,01 in my country yet it's the same price as the US. Another reason to hate them and not pay ****. :khalyan2:
