People are paying $23 for this???

Honestly shocked.

And it's Google, so you know they are going to keep raising prices, probably adding some ads also in the near future. And of course selling your behavior to advertisers as well, that's a given.

That's the family plan. The individual price is $13.99. Absolutely worth it to me. 10/10, would shill again. I watch almost exclusively on Apple TV, so unless I had a DNS ad blocker, I would see ads. And even those will eventually be detected and blocked, I'm sure. This is how much I've consumed since signing up in August:

I love supporting the creators of the excellent science and math content I subscribe to. Plus I watch a ton of stupid Tim & Eric sketches, SNL sketches, kitten videos and such. I couldn't imagine seeing an ad for every 1:00 video!

Presented with a choice of paying or seeing ads, imma pay. The price is less than one movie ticket a month.
