    Fair enough, you need to look out for you. If the money would be missed, don’t pay the bridge troll. Block ads and be free.

    FWIW: YouTube Red was basically what you’re asking for and it cost the equivalent of 9 EUR/month. Red wasn’t available in Europe so this is a moot point, but that’s the rate that YouTube previously valued itself at as a standalone product if you’re curious.

        Oh! I’d never heard of Premium Lite so I thought you were speaking hypothetically. TIL.

        Yeah, that is a lot lower. If they offered that option I’d definitely use it over the $12 one… but I suppose that explains why the pilot never took off, eh?
