Premium is priced so uncompetitively my family can subscribe to all of Netflix, AppleTV+ and Amazon Prime Video for less than a YouTube subscription.
I have YouTube premium family and it costs about $20/month for 5 family members. Are you sure those streaming services cost less than that?
YouTube Premium Family - $39.99 NZD
Netflix - $18.49 NZD AppleTV+ - $8.49 NZD Amazon Prime Video - $8 NZD Total: $34.98 NZD
That Netflix price is for one account, two screens. Premium family is for 5 separate accounts, no matter where geographically and no password sharing. Your comparison is not fair.
I have a family of 4. We don’t need more than two screens simultaneously.
But let’s pay the extra $6.50 and push it to the top spec Netflix plan.
All three services combined, services that don’t have their content made by their users, are now $41.49. Only $1.50 more than YouTube.
Or you could swap Netflix for Disney+ and it would be $31.48.
YouTube Premium is still a compete rip off.
