As an Asian, online subscriptions tend to be cheaper than US. Is my PHP159 ($3) can support 14 different Patreons? E.g. RedLetterMedia's Patreon will cost me $2 per month.
It's weird because I've been using my e-wallet as my payment method on my former (now deleted) Google account for years, and never had issues with automatic renewal of my "Premium Pass" from one mobile game I used to play.
I will contact Google regarding this matter later.
For me, personally, I don't really mind how YouTube and other streaming services split their earnings to creatives. If one service stints mine, consumer's general experience, better to move somewhere similar. I'm glad that I subscribed YouTube Premium for two months, but right now, if they're not refunding me... then I should do the ethical one
I have reason: Costs. Recently in my region, Spotify racked their price from ₱129 to ₱149, ₱10 difference with YouTube Premium.
Plus, Spotify keeps shoving their podcast platform on my feed, which is annoying, and I'm only streaming music. I rather see or listen to something from my followed channels.
P.S. I only created a Google account just for YouTube and for my Android device, nothing else. I don't use other mainstream Google products.
I'm on ungoogled-chromium. Librewolf keeps breaking a website I frequently visits.
