Overview
- YouTube's two-person Premium plan allows two users in the same household, aged 13 or older, to share a subscription while maintaining separate accounts.
- The pilot program is currently available in India, France, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, with no timeline for expansion to other regions, including the U.S.
- In India, the plan costs ₹219 per month, positioned between the ₹149 individual plan and ₹299 family plan.
- Subscribers gain access to full Premium benefits such as ad-free viewing, background play, and offline downloads at a lower cost than two individual subscriptions.
- This initiative follows recent price hikes and the introduction of Premium Lite, as YouTube seeks to diversify its subscription offerings and compete with services like Spotify Duo.
