For those who want to keep on directly funding Silicon Valley.
I don’t know how much it used to be, but apparently my savings on YouTube TV have increased to $73.00 per month. The more it goes up, the more I save!
It’s kinda like the lottery.
The more you don’t play, the bigger are the guaranteed savings.
Hmmmm. No wonder I’m constantly seeing pop-ups promoting YouBoob TV.
I saw a popup this morning. I will be looking for a new provider today.
That said, isn't Youtube TV all the cable channels plus movies? They might be positioning themselves as a full cable channel but via streaming.
$75 for content they do not create. Who the hell would pay that and why are people continuing to upload videos to it without being paid? They are giving free content to a company owned by Google, a multi-billion dollar corporation
I will keep watching Youtube for free, unless they block me from doing that. I would have more free time that way.
A 108% price increase in less than six years.
Why would anyone pay to watch Youtube? I watch it for free and to boot I usually run it on the Brave brand browser that blocks ads.
Recent headline... YoutubeTV buys NFL Sunday Ticket for two billion per year.
Even though Sunday Ticket is a premium $ add on to base YoutubeTV you knew the cost to pay for Football would spill over to base subscribers. And here it is a 12% increase to help subsidize that two billion per year Football purchase. And at the same time YouTubeTV takes Major League Baseball Network off their streaming service which was part of the base package. Bend over YoutubeTV subscribers (me) Time to check out the competition.
Youtube TV is basically cable. Only to more than your TV. 100 channels, cloud DVR. And of course, just like with cable, the networks keep raising their rates, so they have to pass on the costs. So really the pricing is right in line.
I dumped Comcast and cable 3 years ago. They were charging me $200.00 a month , when i watched 5 channels at the most. What a rip off they are. I’m a lot better off without that brain fodder.
I think I’m going to cancel...It started at just $25 per month.
Best value, IMO, is the premium YouTube where you get no commercials...
Some people on this thread probably need to understand the difference between YouTube and YouTube TV.
We had tv hard line and internet through the local cable company with dvr.
Dropped cable and hard line and now use youtube tv.
Total bill was $293/mo and now after youtubetv increase is now $65 internet plus $74 yttv total $139. Same channels and unlimited dvr.
$1,800/year savings.
YouTube TV is really just a cable bundle delivered over the Internet so it is not a surprise that it is experiencing cable TV like price rises.
I can’t imagine paying Youtube anything for anything.
I can understand how some vendor like Directv or Dish networks have high costs (to an extent) because they have such a huge ifrastructure of satellites constellations and ground equipment to deal with. But for a vendor who essentially pays a pittance of that cost for interconnectivity and server costs, etc., that price is nothing but egregious price gouging, IMO.
No wonder anytime I look at Youtube they have so many annoying pop-up “try a free trial now” ads.
Was overpriced at 35 a month IMHO.
75 a month.. good luck
