Verizon is doubling down on efforts to sell you streaming services. Starting May 30th, the company will offer<\/a> a discounted $10 \/ subscription to YouTube Premium through its myPlan perks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n YouTube Premium typically costs $13.99, letting you watch videos on the platform ad-free, download content, and access YouTube Music Premium. You can get the perk if you have one of Verizon\u2019s myPlan subscriptions<\/a>, which lets subscribers tack on services like Disney Plus and Apple One.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In addition to YouTube Premium, Verizon is adding Peacock to its digital content hub on June 5th. Verizon Plus Play<\/a> lets you sign up and manage subscriptions to Netflix, Max, Paramount Plus, AMC Plus, and more from one place. Like most other services available on Plus Play, Peacock will cost $5.99 per month for Premium or $11.99 for Premium Plus. Both of these plans will get a $2 price hike in July<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Verizon also announced a new Unlimited Phone Upgrade option that will let Unlimited Ultimate customers get the \u201cbest\u201d trade-in deals regardless of the condition of their phone. An Unlimited Ultimate plan costs<\/a> from $100 per month for one line with no discounts to $55 per line each month if you have four lines and an auto-pay discount.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The carrier is pushing toward its goal of becoming a streaming middleman, a setup that allows the company to get a cut of all the subscriptions it sells. So far, Verizon already offers an exclusive bundle with Netflix and Max<\/a>, along with a $25.99 per month deal with Netflix Premium and Starz<\/a>. Other bundles are popping up elsewhere, too, including one with Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max<\/a>, as well as a Netflix, Peacock, and Apple TV Plus<\/a> bundle offered through Comcast.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
