YouTube splits YouTube TV into a selection of customized YouTube TV plans, allowing subscribers to pay less for a smaller selection of channels. “Television should be easy,” reads a blog post announcing the change.
There are more than 10 new plans for sports, news, entertainment and family at prices that are $11 to $28 less than the $82.99 per month for a full YouTube TV subscription. New subscribers will have access to lower prices for the first three months to a year, and a 10-day trial is available. Existing subscribers can upgrade to one of the more affordable plans.
- Sports map – $64.99 per month or $54.99 per month for new subscribers (one year discount). It includes all the major broadcasters (ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox) plus sports networks like FS1, NBC Sports Network, all ESPN networks and ESPN Unlimited.
- Sports + news map – $71.99 per month or $56.99 per month for new subscribers (3 month discount). It includes everything on the Sports Schedule, plus networks like CNBC, Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, CSPAN, Bloomberg and Fox Business.
- Entertainment plan – $54.99 per month or $44.99 per month for new subscribers (3 month discount). It includes all the major broadcasters and content, from FX dramas to Hallmark classics. Comedy Central, Bravo, Paramount, Food Network, HGTV and more are available.
- News + Entertainment + Family tariff – $69.99 per month or $59.99 per month for new subscribers (3-month discount). It includes news and entertainment channels along with family content such as Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, National Geographic, Cartoon Network and PBS Kids.
The new YouTube TV plans will have YouTube TV benefits like unlimited DVR and the ability to share content with up to six members on one account. Add-ons such as NFL Sunday Ticket, HBO Max and 4K Plus can also be purchased. Plans open from this week.
YouTube TV first launched in April 2017 and was originally priced at $35 per month. Over the past nine years, the price has more than doubled. The last price increase came in December 2024, when YouTube raised the price from $72.99 per month to $82.99 per month.
YouTube TV is available on a variety of devices, including Apple TV, iPhone and iPad.
