What is YouTube Premium?

YouTube Premium is a paid subscription, available in certain countries, that offers you ad-free and ad-free advertising (offline viewing) and an enhanced experience on many Google video and music services, including YouTube, YouTube Music, YouTube Gaming and YouTube Kids.

How does YouTube Premium work?

YouTube Premium has no ads

YouTube Premium is about removing ads. Since Google-owned YouTube gets a lot of its money from ads, you really can’t delete them without charging a fee. He also said it would help artists make money. By allowing viewers to pay, switching from one video to another will no longer require waiting for the ads to end. This applies when the paid account is connected.

So if you connect to a smart TV, you can watch videos instantly without interruption. Additionally, this ad-free experience extends to other YouTube branded apps such as YouTube Music, YouTube Gaming and YouTube Kids.

YouTube Premium works offline and in the background

Another YouTube Premium feature that adds more value to the subscription price is offline viewing on a phone or tablet, which means downloading a movie to watch on the train should be easy now. In addition to that, you can play videos in the background. This is the area that can influence some people, for example Spotify, because it means access to video with the possibility of using the application as a music player.

Access to Play Music and YouTube Music Premium

Originally, if you were using YouTube Red, you would receive a free subscription call to Google Play Music (later YouTube Music). And it worked the other way. Play Music made it possible to store up to 50,000 of your songs offline for streaming, access a catalog of 35 million songs, listen offline and of course, everything was ad-free. As for YouTube Music, it has recently been revised.

The new music service was launched in May 2018 in the United States. The United States, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and South Korea next week, then they hit the United Kingdom and other territories in June 2018. It is a mobile app and a desktop player that gives you access to millions of songs. If you can already find it as a video on YouTube, you can find it as a streaming track. But you also have access to video clips.

YouTube Music is available for free, but it does contain ads that will play every few songs. You will also not be able to download music for offline listening at this level. For music and downloads without ads, you will need to subscribe to YouTube Music Premium. Music Premium costs $ 9.99 per month (? 9.99 per month in the UK), unless you are already subscribed to Play Music or YouTube Premium.

That’s right, YouTube Premium comes with Play Music and YouTube Music Premium included.
