Youtube Premium Lite Updates (with limited ads)

[Bapun]

Google is piloting a more affordable premium subscription tier for YouTube that offers ad-free viewing without YouTube Premium’s other features like offline downloads or background playback. The new “Premium Lite” plan was spotted by a user on ResetEra, and YouTube subsequently confirmed the test offering in a statement given to The Verge. Premium Lite is currently being tested in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.

IMO ad free is the thing they should be selling on first place. When free tier of all major streaming apps are supporting picture in picture why not youtube.

While the previous version of Premium Lite had no ads on YouTube and YouTube kids, this new version has limited ads instead. In a footnote, YouTube writes that ads may appear on “music content and Shorts” and users might see “non-interruptive ads when you search and browse.”
