Family are warned to watch what they want to on the current one, as it’ll be gone in a month, replaced by another. Netflix one month, Prime the next and so on. But I subscribe just one at a time to streaming services. I enjoy my entertainment as much as anyone. I look around my neighbours, many on low wages and struggling with the soaring cost of living here in the UK – who seem to regard £50-worth of online services a month as more vital than groceries or rent !ĭon’t get me wrong – I’m no luddite. I never have been and I’m not about to be. There seems now to be a population addicted to streaming entertainment. I’ve never even considered Youtube Premium – way to go Google to ensure I never do. Now You: are you a YouTube Premium subscriber? What is your take on the price increase? Granted, Google's plan includes access to music, which Netflix does not offer. This makes YouTube Premium Family one of the most expensive online streaming solutions available, surpassing Netflix's $19.99 Premium plan. Paying $22.99 per month equates to more than $275 per year.
Whether YouTube Premium Family is worth the original price or the new price is up to the individual user. Those who pay $7.99 per month claim that they have not received the price increase emails yet. Not all grandfathered accounts seem to be included in the price hike, judging from comments on sites such as Reddit. The new price is listed for visitors from the United States, but if you check the price in select European regions, such as Germany, you still see previous price, which in the case of Germany, is €17.99. It is limited to select regions only at the time. The new price is listed on the YouTube Premium website already.
Individual is still available at $11.99 per month, and a bit less when paid annually. All other plans, including the individual plan and student plan, keep their current prices for now.
The price increase affects YouTube Premium Family plans only at the time. Access to YouTube Music Premium is included in the subscription and users may also use some extra features on YouTube, such as downloading videos for offline viewing. YouTube Premium Family brings the ad-free YouTube experience to up to 5 family members.
Some grandfathered customers pay $14 or even less per month currently, but even regular subscribers will have the price of their plan increased by $5 to $22.99. According to the emails, the price of a YouTube Premium Family subscription goes up to $22.99.
