Peacock Subscription Coming to YouTube Premium at No Extra Cost

YouTube Premium is becoming an even better value, as the service will soon include a subscription to Peacock at no extra cost for users in the United States. Starting early next year, YouTube Premium subscribers in the U.S. will get access to Peacock's ad-supported Premium tier. This means you'll be able to watch films like Obsession and Minions, TV shows like Ted and Twisted Metal, and have access to Peacock's NFL and NBA offerings all through YouTube. The news was confirmed today as part of a larger initiative to expand Peacock's reach. “With this agreement, Peacock accelerates its next phase of growth by bringing the service to millions of YouTube Premium subscribers, driving long-term value for our business," said Matt Strauss, Chairman, Media Group, NBCUniversal. "Combined with our YouTube TV extension, this agreement opens the door to new ways for audiences to discover, access and deepen engagement with NBCUniversal's industry-leading content wherever and however they choose to watch.” Although there is no additional cost factored into this, some are worried it could create some kind of price hike for YouTube Premium in the future. We've already seen how such massive increase
