YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.
I think GP is saying the the total income from Premium doesn’t cover the cost of running all of Youtube, not that a single premium subscription doesn’t cover that one user’s costs, which it obviously does (or the people running YouTube are truly idiots).

Ah okay yeah I can see that reading. I think Premium has been growing well, so hopefully that’ll change in the future!
