Youtube Premium: Start in Germany and Austria

For several months now everyone has been wondering when Youtube Red will come to us from the USA. Youtube Premium was launched this week and has the same features as Youtube Red. All information.

Subscription content

A YouTube Premium subscription consists of two parts: YouTube itself and YouTube Music Premium. With Premium, you can also enjoy YouTube offline and without advertising, and background playback with the mobile app is no problem either. You also get access to YouTube Originals, which are films and series.

Youtube Music is a streaming service for music, similar to Spotify and Apple Music. The big advantage is that you have access to music videos that have been uploaded to Youtube, from which you can only play the audio. The afore-mentioned benefits mobile data a lot if you are often on the move.

Prices

You can try YouTube Premium for free for three months. After that, the subscription costs around 12 euros pro Month. However, if you take out the subscription using an iOS device, you will have to pay a full 15 euros. This is because this amount is debited via Apple and the difference to the 12 euros is retained by the company as a commission. If you as an iOS user still want to pay the lower price, it is recommended that you complete the purchase via the web browser or a PC. There is also a family subscription that costs 6 euros more. Here, too, there may be additional charges for iOS users.

Youtube Music Premium can also be booked alone for a monthly fee of € 9,99.
