The new option, which is being tested in India, France, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, offers premium subscriptions to two people. The cost is lower than what two individual plans would cost, but below the amount of a family plan.
Because the plan is being tested in different countries, there is no fixed price to give at this time, but in the U.S. an individual plan costs $14 per month, while a family plan (for up to five people) is $23 per month. Should the program begin testing in the U.S., the price will likely fall in between those amounts.
While the two-person subscription is not currently available to American viewers, YouTube did launch a new lower-price option in March called Premium Lite, which lets users watch “most” videos without ads for $8 per month.
