Youtube TV – History, YouTube Premium, what it is, and how it works?

What is Youtube TV?

Youtube TV is a service that brings the typical cable television through everything the famous Google platform can give.

TV YouTube is a service that offers: live TV, video on demand, and cloud-based DVR. YouTube, a subsidiary of Google, own it.

YouTube TV includes more than 70 channels, including US networks such as ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, Fox, FX, AMC, CNN, Fox News, TBS, Discovery, and ESPN.

It is just the result of a small “trend” going big abroad, with the possibility of attaching your console (Playstation or Xbox, that is) to a continuous streaming service to watch television.

There is no need for an antenna, have a digital connection.

In our country, such a possibility is not so far away. With digital terrestrial, it is impossible to reach everyone seen (low signal and impossibility to see channels in some regions of Italy).

In some cases, we can connect to some service to stream TV, but they are often very dedicated (such as RAI and Mediaset programs) or unofficial.

These are ways to, in a sense, make the system more universal.
