I was promised $8 a month for life when I signed up for Play Music all access, and thankfully they're still honoring that.
And yet they couldn't extend the same courtesy for me when they raised my grandfathered family plan
That was the day I cancelled.
They are? That's me also. I assumed I was getting a price hike. Why do you think we aren't losing our 8$?
This price hike is for people who signed up for YouTube premium early (before it was combined into YouTube music). These people weren't promised a low rate for life when they signed up, their price was always going to increase eventually even if the service didn't merge.
I think the $8 Play Music All Access was advertised as a lifetime price, that it would be what we paid forever. I really hope that's the case.
