YouTube has recently introduced a new subscription tier called Premium Lite, offering a more affordable option for users who are not primarily interested in music videos. This new plan is tailored to those who enjoy a variety of content such as vlogs, video essays, exercise videos, tutorials, game playthroughs, podcasts, and more.
With Premium Lite, subscribers can enjoy an ad-free viewing experience and have the ability to download videos for offline viewing. Priced at $7.99 per month in the US, this plan is a cost-effective alternative to the standard full-priced subscription. The rollout of Premium Lite will begin in America and will also be available in Australia, Germany, and Thailand. While there is no official announcement yet for a UK launch, it is expected to be priced around £6/£7 per month.
In addition to the introduction of Premium Lite, YouTube also offers student discounts for YouTube Premium. This allows students to enjoy the benefits of the premium service at a discounted rate.
For those interested in exploring a wide range of content on YouTube without the interruption of ads, Premium Lite is a great option to consider. Stay tuned for more updates on the availability of this new plan in various regions.
