I don't mind paying but I'm tired of all the price hikes. I was salty earlier today and went through my emails and here's the timeline of price changes. I was annoyed in 2023 but understood it was the end of my grandfathering price back when it was just music. But then to jump up another 25% after three years? Ridiculous.

$26.99 - May 2026

$22.99 - April 2023

$14.99 - October 2020 (change to YouTube Premium)

$14.99 - June 17, 2016 (Google Music family plan)
