The price reflects including the music service whether you want it or not.

How much do you really think they would take off of the price tag if you didn't have music? most similar subs are within the same price range....

I always figured youtube music only existed to make the sub more incentivizing. It probably doesn't even cost them anything they aren't already spedning on youtube.

It needs to be about half the price, if not less tbh. At its current price it’s rivaling netlflix, paramount, etc which are full studio’s producing the content, not just hosting it.
