Get ad free YouTube for a tenner a month

YouTube Red is here, and it's going to change the way you interact with the hugely popular video platform.

Put simply, it's a subscription service costing $9.99 a month which gives you premium access to YouTube. The main advantage will be an ad free experience, so all of those pop ups and pre-rolls and more will be gone. Beyond that, subscribers will get access to unique and original content and be able to enjoy them offline with dedicated downloading.

In addition, the music service formerly known as Music Key will be part of the package, making it easier to find the tunes you want and playing them back in a dedicated app that supports features people want - like being able to continue listening with the screen locked. Which would be a godsend. You'll be able to access YouTube Red on all platforms, including mobile, web and consoles.
