YouTube TV is suitable for those who want little to do with their conventional satellite TVs. The reason this online streaming service gained popularity is that it comes at a low subscription cost and has no contracts.
Subscribers get the freedom to watch any show or live content whenever they want. But this doesn’t make YouTube TV perfect.
For instance, we recently covered how YouTube TV’s Live Guide scroll was not working. It appears that yet another convenience of the service is turning erratic.
YouTube TV 4K Plus add-on
YouTube TV has recently been promoting its 4K Plus add-on, which offers access to 4K content for a monthly fee of $4.99 for 24 months.
However, reports suggest (1,2,3,4,5) that some subscribers are frustrated with the offer and are calling it a scam or pointless.
One of the main complaints is that there is not enough 4K content available on YouTube TV to justify paying the monthly subscription.
Additionally, many subscribers are unhappy about the fact that the subscription will cost $19.99 per month after the 24-month promo period ends.
Some subscribers have taken to forums to express their frustration, with some calling the 4K Plus add-on an absolute scam and others saying that it is pointless.
Some subscribers have also pointed out that the pricing for the 4K Plus add-on is inconsistent, with some being offered $4.99 per month, while others are offered $6.99 per month or $9.99 per month.
Several YouTube TV subscribers are frustrated with the 4K Plus add-on and do not see the value in subscribing to it.
However, it’s worth noting that YouTube TV has not released a statement about the price variations of the 4K Plus add-on, and whether it’s a promotional strategy or a technical issue, it’s not clear.
If anything, the 4K Plus add-on may not suit everyone, so it’s important for subscribers to weigh the cost and the value they get for their money before subscribing.
It’s also worth keeping an eye on the content being offered in 4K as it will change over time and could potentially justify the additional cost.
