> Maybe if you don't consume a lot of YouTube it's not that valuable to you

I'm in this bucket. I think for YouTube my no-brainer price would be around 4.99 or so. Even if it just gave me like 20* hours ad free or something.

I do pay for Twitch Turbo (£11.99) however, I've almost always got a stream open. At least YouTube ads don't run over the top of content, haha.

* Number completely out of thin air, not thought about it at all. Insert fair number here.

Uhg. I hope paying for hours of """premium""" streaming service isn't where the industry goes.

We're already there, it's just ~740 hours instead of 20 :P

Fair comment though, I do get what you mean but I'd be ok with it if it meant things were more affordable. Each to their own and that.

Maybe do a cloud-style pricing? x/hour, capped at £12.99/mo. Same thing if you're already paying for premium but allows for affordability.
