YouTube Testing A Cheaper ‘Premium Lite’ Subscription

 Google is testing a lower-priced YouTube subscription plan in parts of Europe that gives you ad-free viewing without offline downloads, YouTube Music and background playback. 

The plan costs €6.99 ($8.32) per month, the same as the student tier, whereas the normal price is €11.99 ($14.26). YouTube confirmed to The Verge that it's also testing the offering in Belgium, Denmark, Luxembourg and Norway with local equivalent pricing.
