Google kills two-year “Pixel Pass” subscription after just 22 months
(arstechnica.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
You can. The subscription services are optional and mostly geared towards lazy bastards like myself. I could manually back my phone up to any Mac or windows machine but I pay for the convenience of iCloud storage instead. The other subscription services are purely entertainment driven (Music, TV+, Arcade, etc.) and not required to have a fully functioning device.
