Youtube Red - Youtube's paid subscription
 

For a sec i thought this was some kind of April Fools joke.
I'm a little surprised...but not really.
Not too much info has been released about how this will affect Youtube but seems like this is expected to change the online video landscape.

YouTube Red: $10 Per Month For Video With No Ads, Plus Streaming Music, Plus Original Content

YouTubers Are Up In Arms About YouTube Red$

I already skip ads with Google adblock..

I wonder how long it will be before people start posting YouTube red original content on regular youtube. Already see some people charging for some video's.

I wonder how Redtube feels about this lol

They shuda done this a long time ago. I always thought that youtube can make money by charging a premium service, no ads etc

People don't even pay for porn,why the fuck.....:fulloffuck:

Anyone here use google play music? How does it compare to spotify? Wondering if it's worth the switch for me.

Forgot ads even existed on Youtube cause I use adblock

Will this work with a canadian google account with VPN? I already pay for google music subscription which would be included with this new service. I'd be totally down to pay for VPN if it works.

Hopefully you guys have Revscene whitelisted! :thumbs:

Im not annoyed by youtube ads, they usually offer an option to skip the ad after 5 seconds, so whatever, and if you're stuck with one of those 30+ second ads you can't skip, just reload the video a couple times and you'll either get no ad or an option to skip

try it out, google play usually offers 1 or 2 months free (ive been meaning to too but lazy :lol)

I think YouTube should realize that next generation of media service would be Oculus VR videos.

off topic but girlfriend uses it and loves it. she pays for it though so i don't think it's fair to compare unless you're talking about spotify premium. quality is good and i'm quite amused her data limit hasn't been surpassed in the last few months.

Good luck trying to stream that with the internet speed we have now.

Apple music is where its at!!

Nokia music was awesome, and free, before nokia died.... :okay: not sure if the android app still works

Yeah i'm talking about spotify premium. Not off topic as google music is included with YouTube red sub. Looks like i'm going to switch to Red as soon as it hits Canada as I can include artists who upload on youtube but not spotify.

I know I'm not electronically inclined, but how does that work?
What if you have 2,048 bit 128 core 1,000GHz hard drive?

Or is internet speed fundamentally limited by something else? Like LTE, 56k, etc?

Which adblock can block youtube ads? I have Adblock Plus for Chrome and I still see them.

googlemusic paid is good
but applemusic has A LOT more to offer

Maybe check your settings, mine blocks all that shit.

I've been using GPM since the early access days. Honestly, I feel it's definitely worth the $ each month.

Wife is on a 3 month trial of GPM, uses Spotify too. Likes GPM far more.

Now as in 2005? We have plenty of speed to stream 1080p 3d SBS videos. If Youtube can stream 4k video at 60fps video it can for sure steam the video format that oculus supports.

which version of adblock are you guys using for google

that just broke my brain
