    Yeah. That’s normal if you subscribe to things through (iOS or android) apps.

    Google and apple don’t allow apps you roll their own payment methods to “protect their users”. Apps have to use the Google/Apple payment system where Google/Apple take a 30% cut of every payment.

    With YouTube being owner by Google they probably don’t have to pay those 30% on Android, but they have to on iOS.

      Oh yeah. When you put it that way, it’s totally understandable.

      But now I’ve betrayed the fact that I’m willing to pay a lot for community driven content :D

      Still switching around as soon as I’m back at my PC though
