I don't have a problem with them charging for the service. But they keep raising it dramatically over and over. You're paying $15 a month to watch content a YouTube creator is getting 25 cents to create. If they wanted to charge $9.99 a month for a family plan I'd be all about it. At the prices they're charging there are services running full blown movie houses

YouTube is a full blown movie house as well as a place for independent creators *Oops I was wrong

It appears to me they've stopped their original productions.
