to be clear I am currently paying less than the going rate because I’ve had YouTube premium since it was google music. not countenancing a 50% increase

blatantly obvious that some exec has made youtube profit increases part of their annual goals, between this and testing all the stuff to lock 4k behind premium and automatically switch quality down during playback

thats not how over/under works!!!!!!!!! :arghfist:


they did just roll out "handles" though, or are rolling it out. i'd wager no new name but maybe some other stupid refocusing

when other parts of your business start sucking it puts pressure on the actual successful divisions to take up the slack

that drives me bananas. is there a way to make it automatically go to the highest setting and stay there? every video now it seems i have to go "wow wtf" and remember to set it off of 480p

is it not? i mean it's not literally an over/under, but you can bet after/before for the same effect.

i bet after. youtube is too well established a brand to change its name outright. but i would bet before for the next rebrand of youtube red / youtube premium / youtube tv / whatever

it’s closer than most other uses of over/under but it’d be a prop bet of some sort

that actually makes it the perfect time because everyone involved in that is now looking for some more makework

anyway it seems like jacking up the price is counterproductive while also locking down 4k content and increasing ads. like are they trying to increase subs or not???
