  • Early adopters of YouTube Music Premium are being notified that they will soon have to pay the same price as everyone else.
  • Google is giving these customers a grace period of “at least 3 more months” before the changes go into effect.
  • It’s unclear if early adopters in the US are also getting the notification.

Were you one of the first people to jump on YouTube’s “Music Key” streaming subscription back in 2014? If you were, then you’ve probably been enjoying YouTube Music Premium at a discount. Unfortunately, that discount is about to come to an end in the next few months.

First spotted by 9to5Google, users are reporting that they have received a new notification from YouTube Music. The notification warns that early adopters of Premium in Europe will soon have to pay more for their subscription. According to the notification, these users will have to start paying €10.99 a month, bringing the price in line with what everyone else pays for the service.
