About YouTube Premium account

In this post you can learn about the benefits of having a Premium YouTube account and other frequent asked questions (FAQ) abou it!

YouTube Premium benefits:

1. You can watch the videos without any ads.

2. Background play: if you're on your phone, the audio of the video will continue to play even if you're out of the app or the phone display is closed. On Android, you can also view videos picture-in-picture while you use other apps.

3. Downloaded videos: you can download videos or playlists to watch offline. The views watched offline are counted and will be added the next time you sign back in. This also applies to video streams from YouTube Music premium.

4. For Billboard's charts:

• 1250 streams from premium accounts = one album sale

• 3750 streams from ad-supported streams = one album sale

• 1500 YouTube streams = one album sale

• Music videos will now be included in Billboard’s weekly album charts, as well as the Billboard 200. According to the New York Times, the YouTube stream will be counted in the same way that other streaming services such as Apple Music and Spotify are.

• YouTube views are not a factor in the Billboard Hot 100 rankings, as YouTube is not a monitored form of radio airplay. However, YouTube views do count towards Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart, which ranks the most-streamed songs in the United States.

Frequent asked questions (FAQ):

• What's the difference between YouTube Premium and YouTube Music Premium?

Basically, both have the same features. YouTube Music Premium is included in YouTube Premium, but has its own app focused on music and not so much on videos in general. On YouTube Music Premium you can choose if you want to watch the video or only listen to the audio.

• Can I have another free trial if I use a different account?

No. YouTube will ask for a payment method to give you premium access, even for the free trial, and if you use the same one you've used for a previous free trial, it won't work.

• How long does the YouTube Premium free trial last?

There are different free trial offers and payment methods depending on your country. It can last for 1, 2 or even 3 months.

• Does downloaded content and background plays count as views and watch time?

Yes. For downloaded videos, the views are recorded and incorporated just like online watch time the next time you sign in online.

• Are the streaming rules for premium accounts different?

No. The streaming rules are the same. You can't behave like a bot in any case. Stream like a human being always, with or without a premium access.
