First, let's talk about what it's like to watch a video full of ads. You press play and at the beginning, there's at least 5 seconds of waiting, sometimes a very annoying ad. During the video, you lose attention several times when yet another ad appears.
This is the life of anyone who tries to watch videos on YouTube these days, the fact is that the platform has a lot more ads than at other times.
At the same time, we have to agree that the platform is the third largest social network in Brazil, second only to Facebook and Whatsapp, that is, millions of people use it, so we have a lot of cool content there.
It is also estimated that there are no Youtube, more than 1 billion hours of video, you can see a lot of things haha. But ok, we already know that the platform is very good, it has a lot of content and the ads end up getting in the way, but after all, how do I use it without seeing ads?
The answer is Youtube Premium, yes they created a premium version of the service, where for a monthly fee (as if it were Netflix) you have access to everything without ads and even have some advantages.
Advantages of Youtube Premium
- You can download videos and music directly to your cell phone and watch them whenever and wherever you want.
- You can lock the screen (leave it black, off) and the video will still play, perfect for Podcasts and music.
- You can download videos and watch them in places where there is no internet, that is, download them at home, watch them on the street without using up data.
- Receive access to YouTube music as a gift, with thousands of songs, for you to listen to directly on your cell phone.
- Share access across all your devices. If you use your login on your Smart TV, mobile phone and computer, everyone will be ad-free.
- Do you have kids? YouTube Kids is now ad-free and has lots of content for little ones.
- Finally, get access to YouTube Originals, with exclusive YouTube series.
Prices and Plans
The plan on the date of this article, the subscription price is R$ 20.90 monthly, this is for one user, with the first month being free for testing.
Another option is the family plan, with a value of R$ 31.90 monthly for up to 5 users from the same family, I particularly like this plan, because the price per person is very cheap, less than 7 reais per person!!!
It is worth it?
The answer to whether or not it is worth it depends a lot on the use, here at Digital Seguro, we have identified that for those who spend several hours on their cell phone or computer it is worth it, because you watch a lot of videos and after 1 month of testing, no one wanted to stop being Premium, because it is addictive to watch videos without ads.
The price is cheap, compared to other platforms, and the multitude of content that you will have available, VIT IS VERY WORTH IT.
So, if you like YouTube, you can buy premium!
