YouTube has 50 mn Premium, Music subscribers combined: Report

India TV News  

Google has announced that it has now 50 million users subscribed to or trying YouTube Music and YouTube Premium, which is a marked increase from the 30 million subscribers it reported in December 2020. YouTube Music Premium costs $9.99 a month and lets users listen to and download ad-free music. YouTube Premium goes for $11.99 a month and gives subscribers access to all of the benefits of YouTube Music, with the ability to also download and watch regular videos ad-free. Google hasn't commented on what caused the 20 million-subscriber increase, but it's probably worth keeping in mind that last year's count was reported right around the time when Google was shutting down its Play Music service, it added.
