YouTube is a primary source of entertainment for almost everyone these days. Following the footsteps of music subscription services, Google has announced YouTube Red – A premium experience which takes your video viewing experience to a whole new level.

Available only in the US for US$9.99 (about RM42.70) a month, you get ad-free playback across any device that you’ve signed in. This is good news for those wanting to watch videos back to back without the interruption of pre-roll ads.
