The best £1.20 I spend a month

Agree with that - although I pay about £1.86 a month for the family version which my 3 sons all use as well. Youtube is borderline unwatchable with ads. I probably watch more youtube than normal TV these days. If I had to endure the endless ads I'd probably watch it a lot less.

For those who got YT premium via VPN, how long have you had the subscriptions active for? Would have thought that after a few months Google would know you are not located in Turkey etc

Been paying monthly for a individual license via Turkey on a UK debit card since Oct 2022 it's still fine so far.

They haven't closed this loophole yet but probably a matter of time.

Yeah when I forget to sign in on a new device I'm always blown away by how many ads there are. I wouldn't be able to enjoy a video and get into the flow of it with adverts. I also probably spend more time watching YouTube than actual TV and I need YouTube premium as I use it on a range of devices (PC/iPhone/iPad/Sky box/LG TV app/AppleTV app) and not all support ad-blockers

I've been using it for about 3 years with no issue. During these years I've lived in India, Turkey and now Argentina.

 

[CAPTAINBUMFLUFF]

thanks for all the responses, surprised to see how many of you have had active subscriptions for many years.

Always tough on the family when you move especially the kids making friends in new schools but 3 in 3 years. Now that's good going
