April 11, 2019I got this email last night the prices on YouTube TV are now on par with Slingbox “We built YouTube TV to bring you a live TV service with the content you want through a reimagined TV experience.

All members will now have access to Discovery Channel, HGTV, Food Network, TLC, Investigation Discovery, Animal Planet, Travel Channel, and MotorTrend. In addition, EPIX is now available for an additional charge. Finally, we’ll be including the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) later this year. To keep bringing you the best service possible, we are also updating our membership pricing. The price for new and existing members will be $49.99/month. The price for new and existing members billed through Apple will be $54.99/month. Existing members will see these changes reflected in their subsequent billing cycle after May 13.
