Updates to YouTube TV: More content and a new price
Two years ago, we launched YouTube TV to bring the best of live TV, delivered the way you want. Since then, we’ve been working to build a package that fits your needs. We expanded nationwide, added 10+ new channels, improved our DVR and launched new features to take your viewing experience to the next level.
As we continue to listen to you and build a best-in-class content and product experience, we have a few updates to share today.
We’ve been listening when you asked for the Discovery network brands. Today, we are excited to announce that we're bringing eight of your favorite channels to YouTube TV: Discovery Channel, HGTV, Food Network, TLC, Investigation Discovery, Animal Planet, Travel Channel, and MotorTrend. We’ll also be adding OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network later this year. In addition, EPIX is now available for an additional charge.
This means that you’ll be able to follow along on the adventures of Sig Hansen and Captain Keith Colburn on "Deadliest Catch," watch as Drew and Jonathan Scott create dream homes on "Property Brothers," and celebrate as Randy Fenoli and the Kleinfeld crew help brides in "Say Yes to the Dress." Add EPIX to watch Max Easton and his team at MI6 as they look to save the world on "Deep State," or catch up on the earlier exploits of another British agent in "Moonraker."
In keeping with our goal of giving you the content you want—when you want it—YouTube TV now includes 70+ networks, 6 accounts per household (each with its own unique recommendations and cloud DVR with no storage space limits), and 3 concurrent streams. It's all included in the base cost of YouTube TV. We also provide complete local affiliate coverage, with local feeds from all of the four largest broadcasters in over 90% of the markets where YouTube TV is available, and three of four stations in all the rest. And you can watch YouTube TV on any screen—mobile devices, tablets, computers and TVs. We will continue to expand the list of supported devices.
To keep bringing you the best service possible, we’re updating our membership price to $49.99/month. The price for members billed through Apple will be $54.99/month. This new price takes effect today, April 10, for new members. Existing subscribers will see these changes reflected in their subsequent billing cycle on or after May 13.
