POLL: Do you pay for ad-free YouTube?

by
I've noticed recently that YouTube are offering me very tempting free trials to upgrade to their ad-free version which also includes original premium content. While I was excited by the idea of ad-free YouTube when they announced the news a few years back, as a frugal person I never made the investment. Do you pay for ad-free YouTube, and if so, do you feel it's worth it?

I do. 12€ for YT music and YT premium is a great deal for me.

It also gives me free youtube music subscription, I was paying the same for spotify, I was getting two things here on the same plan, hence started paying for this.

Hello @Abadesi, I believe that busyness people who work in the field relevant to marketing, creative work or some kind of product development, should not block all ads and should be exposed to ads on daily basis as much as they could. And that is from two reasons: First, we need to be introduced to all new things which are happening, and get new creative ideas, as well as to catch new marketing tricks and trends. And second, we need to be aware how marketing ads affect people, experiencing it from the first hand. We would surely be somewhat subjective and more tolerant to extensive amount of ads, but when we feel something is boring or its too much, it will give us insight how other people might feel about ads. That way business people develop a good sense and taste for executing a good and effective marketing, and constantly upgrade the knowledge and experience, which will on one way or another result better product and company.

I do because I use youtube a lot for watching news and tutorials. I have ad blocker on my desktop but I need ad-free in mobile, which I also use it for listening music. I think I've been using premium for 2 years almost

I only go to YouTube from time to time, I don't use it everyday like Spotify which I pay for.

I don’t actually use it that much, I find Vimeo much better.

Yes, I pay for it as all those ads annoy me.

While the ad-free version of YouTube does have its perks, I understand the hesitation, especially for those mindful of expenses. If you're looking for an alternative way to enjoy ad-free YouTube and premium content without breaking the bank, you might want to visit this website "getmodsapk" for a possible solution. They offer a YouTube Premium mod apk that could provide a similar experience without the subscription cost. Just remember to proceed with caution when downloading mods.
