For new subscribers, the change takes effect immediately, while existing subscribers will begin to pay the higher price on Jan. 13.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/YouTubeTV\/status\/1867236661173612567\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">statement<\/a> posted on social media and emailed to YouTube TV subscribers, YouTube, a subsidiary of Google, cited \u201crising content costs\u201d for the price change.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe don\u2019t make these decisions lightly, and we realize this impacts our members,\u201d the company said, adding that anyone who was paying a discounted rate or was on a trial would not be affected until that promotional period ended.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The increase means YouTube TV is now charging the same as Hulu\u2019s most popular television streaming package. Hulu, a rival cable substitute, raised that monthly streaming charge in October.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It is the latest in a series of price hikes for YouTube TV, which <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2017\/02\/28\/technology\/youtube-subscription-television-service.html\" title=\"\">debuted<\/a> in 2017 at $35 a month and has slowly risen in price ever since, first to $50 a month in 2019 and most recently to $72.99 in March 2023.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">YouTube will not be adding new channels for subscribers as part of the increase. YouTube TV\u2019s current offering of more than 100 traditional network and cable channels, a DVR service and six accounts per household will stay the same.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">YouTube declined to say how many subscribers YouTube TV had, but it reported in February that the service had eight million paying customers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Separate from YouTube, the company\u2019s free video platform that generates revenue through advertisements, YouTube TV competes with Hulu, Fubo, Sling and other streaming services that offer a range of channels. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Those cable substitutes compete for content as well as for customers, often at great cost. In 2022, YouTube TV <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/12\/22\/business\/youtube-nfl-sunday-ticket.html\" title=\"\">acquired the exclusive rights<\/a> to a package of National Football League games called Sunday Ticket for $2 billion a year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/12\/12\/business\/youtube-tv-price-increase.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTube TV is becoming more expensive \u2014 again.
