The changes apply to both new and existing users, although it’s unclear whether existing subscribers will have a grace period before the new prices take effect. However, new users can still take advantage of a one-month free trial before committing to the revised price. The trial is available for individual, family, and student plans, and offers a chance to experience the benefits of YouTube Premium, including ad-free streaming, background playback, and improved high-definition video, before the new charges apply.
