Somehow paying for Netflix is fine but god forbid I want to watch a 10 hour loop of the DS9 intro without ads.

    You think that’s bad? Mention you use a HP printer sometime. I dare you to try it.

    I think most people are angry with YouTube premium because it’s a service that doesn’t give you anything. It’s a service where they stop annoying you. But it doesn’t unlock anything new that you didn’t have before, doesn’t give you access to content or data you don’t have access to, it doesn’t improve the service. It just removes the annoyances they put there deliberately. So people are a little angry about it

    It’s a protection racket, for your attention and time.

      it doesn’t improve the service.

      Doesn’t it do exactly that? It removes the ads whoch makes it way better.

      But it doesn’t unlock anything new that you didn’t have before

      It does give you access to higher quality streaming though, offline play, background play, video queue, picture in picture and youtube music premium. Do you even know what you are talking about?

    I just find the cost of Premium to be too high.

    Here in Sweden it costs about 120SEK/month, that is far too much, I’d happily pay 60-70SEK/month, that would be worth it to me.

    And would still give rhem more money than me not watching ads
