    This isn’t YouTube Premium; this is YouTube TV which is an entirely different product. YouTube Premium is like $13/mo. and cheaper for students.

    I can’t believe people still watch TV.

      Yup, my mom is trying to cut down on some bills but guess the one thing they can’t bring themselves to cut because they can’t imagine using anything else to watch their shows?

        True, I can understand if people are elderly, sorry for assuming that if it’s not the case. But it seems like this promo is for a platform for streamed “cable TV”. In that case, people might as well just have streamed individual shows or movies if they don’t know how to torrent.

    I’d honestly rather pay the 6 euros for IPTV at that point (it’s only that cheap because our Internet is 3x more expensive than neighboring countries so they let you have cheap IPTV as an extra).

    I use YouTube the most of all streaming services. Yet I don’t understand why there isn’t an affordable easy to use option, that includes no ads and a high CPM for creators.

    My understanding is YouTube premium, doesn’t highten the payout to creators, but rather just substitutes the dirt poor ad revenue per impression.

      It actually does get higher revenue for content creators for the majority of your creators. Average per view is something like 5-10x vs non premium views.

      It’s based around your watch time and something like 50%? of your subscription split across the channels you watch.

      Ad impressions pay very little on YouTube.

      You’re misinformed. I watch many creators who have said in their own words that Premium subscriber views make more money for them.

    Gawd yeah I get Hulu Live, and it costs $80+ a month… the video constantly drops or the image becomes static. And I’ve never been bombarded with more jardiance musicals and balance of nature ads in my life. It’s just non stop stuff I will never ever buy.
