YouTube Music and Premium now available in Hungary for an ad-free experience

YouTube’s music streaming service, YouTube Music, is now available in Hungary, too, on both Android and iOS devices. You can sign up for the 1-month-long free trial period during which you can get to know and enjoy all the features, even the ones that are normally in the paying category, and decide whether you want a subscription.

According to 24, the service can be opened from your browser, too, and it only costs 1490 HUF/month (4.6 EUR). You can also choose the family plan where the service costs 2290 HUF (7 EUR) and you can add up to six different Google accounts.

At the same time, the long-awaited YouTube Premium is now also available with a regular or a family plan, allowing users to enjoy any content on YouTube accessed with Google accounts without the bother of unwanted ads.

YouTube recently introduced the ‘Music Charts’ function in Hungary, too, check out the details HERE.

YouTube Music

YouTube Music was launched in 2015, especially aimed at those who listened to music through the video sharing service. In 2018, it was thoroughly reworked, changing the design and some of the functions, too. YouTube Music is basically Spotify and Apple Music’s competition.

One of its advantages is that you can access any music that is available on YouTube, so it offers a wider range of content. In Hungary, this is especially true, as Hungarian artists rarely make it to the content featured by Spotify or Apple Music.

One disadvantage, however, is that even though you can access the app and search the contents without having a subscription, once you lock the screen or would like to open a different app, the music stops. However, after paying the monthly sum, you can listen to it while other apps are open, and you can even download your favourites so that you can access them offline, too.
