You mean the feature literally called YouTube Premium Lite? ;) https://www.youtube.com/premiumlite

Another option is to just VPN to Turkey when setting it up (Can be done with a UK account and UK card) and then it's about $1.5/month.

When I click on that link in the UK, I just get a “this offer is not available” error. Seems like they don’t yet offer such a thing here.

Ah I see! Might be US exclusive. Anyway the VPN solution works well in all countries.

It's not available in the US either. The latest list I can find says it's being tested in Belgium, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Sweden, and Luxembourg.

When doing those vpn tricks to get lower pricing you run the risk of services terminating your account and that's something a lot of people can't afford when it comes to their google accounts
