    I get YouTube Premium with YouTube Music for $2.60 by using ProtonVPN and connecting to Ukraine. That’s all you have to do. Once you’re connected to the YouTube premium website it’ll display Ukrainian currency which totals to $2.60 USD. You can subscribe to channel memberships in the same manner for $1.60 instead of $5.

    I’d say $2.60 is a killer deal for adfree YouTube on everything and a full music streaming service.

        Is this actually true? I just did a search to find any source stating this, but I couldn’t find anything.

      How do you pay for it? If I try to use a visa cc for an acct outside the US they demand I have a bank acct in that country and verify a deposit AMT.

      I had one in Argentina for ages, until they pulled this trick

        I just used my credit card. Worked fine. Checked the statement and I was charged $2.60.

      Doesn’t that idea fall apart when you get to the payment method? The payment service knows in which country your bank account or PayPal account is registered that isn’t IP dependent right?
