FULL STORY
======================================================================

If youre an avid YouTube user, youre most likely in the loop with its 
seemingly never-ending selection of primetime channels. Now, viewers in the 
US can watch movies and shows from the ad-free tier of Max on YouTube 
Primetime following an announcement from Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD). 

Max has become the most recent Primetime inductee, joining more than 35 
channels including Paramount Plus, Hayu, and Starz. In a post announcing the 
news , WBD says its integration with YouTube will offer customers access to 
its most popular content across its various brands, which range from Food 
Network to TLC, plus content from Warner Bros. Pictures. Viewers will be able 
to subscribe and watch on YouTube and pay via their Google account. 

Maxs arrival on YouTube Primetime channels is another step in WBDs push to 
make the platform available to a wider audience. As it stands, Maxs with-ads 
tier is priced at $9.99 a month, and its standard ad-free tier is $15.99 a 
month. Theres also an ultimate ad-free tier available for $19.99 a month.

YouTube primetime channels are similar to Amazon Prime Channels, providing a 
way of letting customers stream their favorite platforms through YouTube, 
making it easier for viewers to access different subscription services from 
one place. 

As YouTube continues to expand as an entertainment platform, its becoming 
clear that its close to becoming the go-to streaming service for Google 
customers. 

The addition of Max to YouTube primetime channels follows the recent news of 
Google terminating its Play Movies & TV , where customers will have their 
purchased content migrated to their YouTube accounts under the Movies & TV 
section. YouTube is also set to become Googles new home for podcasts , with 
Google Podcasts set to shut down in April 2024. 

 YouTube also recently rolled out its Multiview feature , which gives sports 
fans the option to experience four different games at once. You might also
