Hey Teriyaki,

On the contrary, I find this thread really engaging. I don't think i've been apart of a community like this before. My friend said the members here are pretty down to earth and are quite witty.

I will admit, I didn't get some of the posts initially, I think I took those posts too literally, but looking back at this thread now, It seems a lot of the members are being sarcastic/entertaining. haha, which is really refreshing.

That's what I was wondering too.
Is this spam?

Pay for YouTube while today it falls on its own sword and demonetizes creators at the behest of NBC owned Vox. Even educational history channels are being demonetized as hate speech for including Nazi propaganda footage.

For those desperate enough to do this, maybe see if you qualify for student pricing first. It's $6.99/month vs $11.99

There's a post on RFD about this and from what I recall, it works with emails for alumnis.

If you're frugal enough to jump through a few hoops, I believe they shared tips and tricks to subscribe the service from India or Russia for a lower price.

If you're going with fraud to avoid ads without paying as much, just use an adblocker.

NBC does not own VOX.

Yes you're right. NBC Universal only has a $200 million investment in Vox, not complete ownership.

It's actually more than that, since Comcast already owned 14% of Vox Media when that investment took place

Not complete ownership, but you could argue that it's "close enough" when they do stuff like this
