If rolled out widely, this would make web browsers and third-party YouTube clients without a DRM license unusable for YouTube playback, download, etc. This would include almost all open-source web browsers and almost all third-party YouTube clients. Archive link to reddit post about this
How to kill YouTube in one stupid step.
I guess their CEO wasn’t paying attention when the music industry got trounced by pirating.
They went and paid for Spotify.
Like most heavy users of YTP. YouTube will be just fine. Y’all just freeloaders. Pay you cheap bastards.
Already paid in personal data before I was smart enough to try and close the faucet, I don’t see why I should pay more
Because prices change. You can stop using it if you don’t feel the value is there.
Alright, so is my current data worth more or less than my old data? Is my old data worth more or less today than, say, 3 years ago? I don’t see a reason to pay if Google refuses to let people know how much they are worth to them, first.
YouTube was acting a loss leader for years.
Your data has increased in value since then, so has the cost to run the service. These things aren’t some mutually exclusive bubble. This is not how businesses are run, certainly not public traded companies. Many consumers do find the value in a $22/mo video + music sub. We use it a lot.
I have no expectations of a free experience and I get nearly all my families entertainment media via a single subscription. If they raise it beyond my expectations I will steal it or look elsewhere depending on the quality of the content at that time.
But for now, it’s a fantastic service.

Jesus christ. You might wanna come up for air, dude
👌
Y’all could just pay 🤷♂️
I used to when the price was fair for family plan, but now I’m on the high seas. It’s a price issue, they are making billions , no need to fleece us.
False. Fake news. You’ve just invented that out of nowhere like a desperate trumpet who doesn’t know how to use Google.
YT has never made a dime unless that’s changed in the last year. YT has always been a loss leader.
Stop lying to win internet arguments. It’s pathetic and sad.
How’s that boot taste?
Better than being poor and delusional about being entitled to steal 🤣
I honestly love the bootlicker tag. It tells me everything I need to know about your alignment with reality. You just want to be mad to argue on the Internet. Nothing based in reality to offer. A sad deplorable existence.
Not when I can’t even get a DRM-free MP3 from the payments. If I could, I’d reconsider that.
I know I know, that’s how the world works. You as the buyer get to set the terms 🤣
Make the app worth paying for. I pay for Nebula because its worth it
Then don’t use it f you like nebula. Why are you all wasting time bitching about an app that’s not worth it?
Because they are thieves and hate having that pointed out to them
👌👍🤡
