also what it used to cost, and what it does now, so you can skip the article for other reasons instead:
"YouTube’s annual subscription plan in South Korea was initially 10,450 won ($7.95 USD) per month for the web and 14,000 won ($10.65 USD) per month for Android and iOS."
For Germany it was 11.99 -> 12.99€
Pretty good value actually.
Except their feed is shite, the notifications have never worked, their support is awful, their policy is piss poor and randomly enforced and they don't pay to create the vast vast vast majority of the content they are being paid for. So fuck them and their shitty platform.
I got dragged over from Google Play Music, and never use YouTube video.
My subscription is going from AUD 9.99 to AUD 16.99 a month in April, for features I couldn't give a crap about.
I just want to listen to music, fuck this noise. I've got a reminder in my calendar in March to cancel my subscription and I might switch to Spotify which is $5 a month cheaper here.
I honestly find it hard to see how there is any value, just a waste of money. But you do you
