YouTube TV’s more-than-you-want Base Plan, which increasingly resembles the dreaded “basic cable” in both expanding price and channels, has a new escape clause for Spanish-language viewers.
Google’s streaming-TV service has launched a standalone Spanish Plan with 28-plus Spanish-language networks for $34.99 a month that does not require a subscription to the $65-a-month Base Plan. It also launched a $14.99-a-month Spanish Plus add-on with 25-plus channels for Base Plan subscribers.
So, is this the beginning of the great unbundling? YTTV subscribers can only hope.
In any case, Spanish-language viewers now have three options to get their preferred channels:
- Get the Base Plan (of course), an 85-plus-channel package that includes Telemundo;
- Keep the Base Plan and sign up for the Spanish Plus add-on ($14.99 a month), with 25-plus Spanish-language networks;
- Or sign up for the Spanish Plan, no Base Plan required.
Google promised a standalone Spanish-language package after adding Univision, Galavision, and UniMas to the Base Plan in September.
