What Is YouTube Premium?​

YouTube Premium is the site’s paid subscription service. It offers ad-free viewing of all videos, offline playback, and exclusive, paywalled content primarily made by famous YouTube personalities.

For U.S. subscribers, it currently costs $11.99 a month, and this includes a YouTube Music Premium subscription.

  • YouTube Premium: The site’s primary paid subscription service.
  • YouTube Music: A separate music streaming service with its own app that allows you to listen to music for free. It’s Google’s competitor to Spotify and Apple Music.
  • YouTube Music Premium: The subscription ($9.99) version of YouTube Music. Unlike the free version, it allows background play, offline downloads, and higher bitrate audio in the Music app. You can also get this as part of your YouTube Premium subscription. It currently includes access to Google Play Music, but it will soon fully replace that.
  • YouTube TV: A live TV service similar to Hulu that allows you to watch live TV and record cloud-based DVR.
  • YouTube Kids: An app designed primarily for kids, that contains only age-appropriate content. The features of YouTube Premium also apply to this.

The Benefits of Premium​


If you’re thinking of subscribing to YouTube Premium, it does have a host of features to consider. Here’s a list of the service’s current benefits:

  • Ad-free viewing: You can view everything on the site without any ads. You also get ad-free viewing on any platform you sign in to with your Google account, including the web, smartphones, Roku, or any other streaming devices.
  • YouTube originals: You get access to original content, primarily from high-profile creators, along with some tv shows, documentaries, and movies.
  • Background play: If you’re on mobile, the audio from the video you’re viewing will continue to play even if you’re outside the app or your phone display is closed. On Android, you can also view videos picture-in-picture while you use other apps on your phone.
  • Download videos: You can download videos or playlists to watch offline on your smartphone or tablet.
  • YouTube Music Premium: You get access to this service and all the features that come with it, as well.
I enjoy commercial free movies and unlimited music choices I get with YouTube Premium. With YouTube music I can subscribe to various artists and bands for my listening pleasure. I can download and listen to contributed playlist of others or create my own playlist.

Here in the States, they started another YouTube TV (February 28, 2017) which you have to pay for. we still have the free service..
YOUTUBE TV Link
YouTube TV is an American streaming television service that offers live TV, on demand video and cloud-based DVR from more than 85 television networks. It is owned by YouTube, a subsidiary of Google, itself a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. YouTube TV's line-up includes major U.S.networks such as ABC, CBS, IFC, NBC, PBS, Fox, FX, AMC, CNN, Fox News, TBS, Discovery, Comedy Central and ESPN.
 
It might be worth it to get rid of the damn commercials when I watch YouTube on Roku. There's no ad-blocker for that. And for the TV channels so I don't have to use a OTA antenna. We just have basic cable, which isn't in HD, but OTA is. WTF?

Their music service doesn't interest me, nor do any other music services. Today's music sucks. The only time I listen to music these days is when I watch classic rock band concerts on YouTube, but now they're broken up with commercials. Bummer, dude.

But if we got YouTube premium, that would mean we have Netflix, AmazonPrime, and YouTube Premium for streaming. I'd like to get rid of Netflix and their sorry-ass Roku app with its frickin' auto-play that you can't turn off, which people have been complaining about for years but Netflix doesn't care.
 
The only thing about Adblock for YouTube music as opposed to youtube premium is I stream YouTube music in my car using CarPlay. Adblock doesn’t stop YouTube commercials when streaming from my. iPhone. So I will keep YouTube premium.
 
A lot of sites won't let you view if you have an ad blocker unless you turn it off. I apparently have one but don't know what it is or how to turn it on or off and it doesn't block YouTube ads.
