Enable Multi-Month Subscriptions for Turbo
PROBLEM
At this time, Turbo is only available on a monthly recurring basis.
BACKGROUND
However, Subscriptions are available in month, 3 months, and 6 months renewal increments. (This phrasing is pulled directly from the Subscription panel on Twitch. Who does your copy? Anyways…)
PROBLEM PART TWO
This discordance in user experience is confusing.
ASK
Bring feature parity to Turbo.
IMPLEMENTATIONS
Full Feature Parity with Subscriptions - Turbo renewal periods would be: month, 3-month, 6-month and offer the same 10% and 15% discounts
Industry Parity - Monthly or Annual renewal, with a discount equivalent to 2 months on the annual plan ($5/month or $50/year)
PROBLEM PART THREE
Turbo has not provided users value for quite some time - and that is prior to the price increase. Many Turbo users do not benefit from VOD storage, since they do not stream. Additional global emotes are worthless. Name colours… yeah.
The price increase will lead to Turbo cancellations - the very least Twitch could do is to enable multi-month purchasing to allow users to save some money.
CLOSING COMMENTS
Directly asking users to create a UserVoice Suggestion for this issue, or any specific issue, is nothing short of asinine.
If Twitch is aware enough of a problem to voice it to the community - the community does not need to submit a UserVoice suggestion.

Twitch Turbo Yearly Subscription
Please allow a (slightly discounted?) yearly option for Turbo that does not auto-renew. Many other services have this and I would feel a lot better about signing up if I could do it a year at a time. -

An annual subscription with a small discount compared to monthly would also provide additional incentive for users to go this route instead of alternative methods of making Twitch a more viewer-friendly experience.

Would love to see a Twitch Turbo Yearly sub option. Month to month is nice, however it ads up with all other memberships. I tend to prefer yearly subscriptions as I can take care of them for the year when I get my tax return or a bonus or an extra paycheck, etc and then not have to worry about it for the year.
