I can’t justify premium. For the same price I can buy for my family:

AppleTV+, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+

Or:

YouTube but without ads

Get a VPN and make a quick trip to Turkey or Ukraine where you can get it for about 2€/month

Once you sign up and pay in Türkiye does it just keep working back in your home country?

[–] twei@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 6 months ago

Yes, it's been working for a year now. I set my location back to Germany right after subscribing to premium

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

How do you pay it though? With a US credit card?

[–] Viper_NZ 2 points 6 months ago

NZD.

AppleTV+ ($14.99, Amazon Prime Video ($10.99) and Disney+ ($14.99) = $40.97 per month

YouTube Premium = $39.99 per month
