I don’t think the prices in Europe are increasing (yet). My plan is still 12 euros / month.
And regardless… It’s been 12 euros since it was launched in Europe in 2018.
If the price were to go up to 14 euros in 2023, that would pretty much be in line with inflation.
I’ve got €6/m ad free but without premium features. YT tries to make me upgrade but this is enough for me. I wouldn’t pay €12/m but I’d rather go looking for adblockers and third party apps should it come to it.
I remember looking into it at the time and deciding against downgrading. I’m not entirely sure why.
I think it was because of the lack of background playback in the mobile app? 🤔
(Bit expensive for such a tiny feature, but I digress…)

They introduced that tier a year ago, right?

Something like that, yeah. It was introduced conveniently after the YouTube Vanced crackdown.
