YouTube has introduced a new subscription tier called Premium Lite, which aims to enhance the viewing experience for its users. Announced on Wednesday, the subscription offers an ad-free experience on most videos for $7.

The full YouTube Premium plan offers you ad-free watching and listening on YouTube videos, music and listening. The Lite version lets you watch most videos ad-free, except for music videos. Additionally, you can't play videos offline or in the background with the Lite plan.

As expected, YouTube has announced the expansion of its $7.99 a month Premium Lite plan to the United States, following a months-long pilot

In a bid to win more paying subscribers, YouTube is launching a new pilot program in the US called YouTube Premium Lite. This plan focuses on an ad-free video experience, though with some caveats. Here's how it compares with YouTube's $13.

YouTube's Premium Lite pilot program is expanding to the U.S. nearly four years after the Google-owned streamer began testing the pilot service in Europe. With this rollout, YouTube says it is testing out the option for US users after offering Premium Lite in Germany, Thailand and Australia.

Priced at $7.99 per month, Premium Lite will rid your YouTube experience of ads when watching “most” videos.

YouTube has more than 125 million subscribers for music and premium plans, and it launched the lower-cost Premium Lite tier without music in the U.S.

YouTube touts its Lite plan as a more affordable alternative to its full Premium subscription, which costs a hefty $13.99 a month. A Premium plan removes the ads for all content, including music and music videos, and offers other perks, such as offline viewing, background playing, and 1080p quality.

YouTube has launched a $7.99 per month, ad-free Premium Lite subscription for users looking for entry-level added benefits.
