YouTube will launch its membership service, YouTube Red, on Oct. 28. The service offers users video access without advertisements across all of YouTube, and also allows users to save videos to watch offline via phone or tablet, as well as the ability to play videos in the background.
The service will be available for $9.99 per month. YouTube Red works with Google Play Music, allowing users to subscribe to one and automatically get access to the other.
Additionally, YouTube will launch member-only access to new shows and movies, via YouTube Originals. A list of Originals content is available on YouTube’s official blog.
The content will be available on multiple devices and apps, including a new YouTube Music App that will be available soon.
Beginning Oct. 28, U.S. viewers can try YouTube Red free via a one-month trial.
