Can one take advantage of lower subscription fees when residing abroad? (sopuli.xyz)

For instance, YouTube Premium charges 12€ in my home country. However, where I’m staying now they would charge less than 3€.

So, if I would like to take advantage of this, I assume I’d need to create a new Google/YT account, which would mean I’d lose all subs, playlists etc that I’ve created?

Or am I missing something here?

What does 'residing abroad' mean? In sounds like a bit of an oxymoron, how can you reside in a country you're not in, right?

This sounds very facetious. It's obvious they mean they moved from their home country and are residing abroad, relative to their home country.

Thanks for pointing that out -- I was worried it would sound that way. I'll frame the question better next time.

Where I live, there are a lot of people that describe themselves as "residing abroad", which represent quite a weird mix of very different situations at all imaginable levels of legality. Sometimes I forget this is more straightforward elsewhere.
