50 USD per month? Are they crazy?

For YouTube TV, not YouTube Premium. YouTube TV is actual live TV channels, like cable.

Is this a normal price for TV in the US? In Europe it is more like 10-20€, which is why 50$ sounds out of this world ridiculous.

If anything, that is low. Cable bills can get truly outrageous depending on what you add. You get an NFL or MLB subscription, a few premiums like HBO and you can have a $200/month cable bill.

If there were no ads at all I'd instantly subscribe. But I don't pay for anything that has ads. It's either free with ads, or paid with no ads.
