- YouTube could be adding another feature behind its premium payment wall
- A new report says that an audio quality control with three levels is arriving.
- It could reinforce the set of premium characteristics, but continue the tendency to put more functions behind a membership
Apparently, YouTube is taking out all the stops to remain at the top of the transmission game for the video content and the YouTube music and, although it responded our requests for adjustable video quality a few years ago, the platform has not yet offered the same for the audio.
However, this could be on the YouTube horizon, since the new suggestions point to an upcoming feature that would allow it to control the quality of the audio when watching videos.
Thanks to Android Authority, who has seen new strings in the application of YouTube Beta, there is a new evidence that suggests the next great YouTube update. Basically it would give you the freedom to adjust the audio quality of any video you are watching.
These could come in three different options; Normal, the standard youtube audio, high, a improved and car bits rate option, which could simply be an automatic configuration depending on its internet speed. It seems too good to be true, right? Well, with YouTube, there is always a trap.
According to Android Authority findings, the YouTube audio quality function will only be available for those who are signed to YouTube Premium, and even then, there is the possibility that this feature is only applicable to certain videos in its endless content library.
It is difficult to determine when YouTube will launch this function since it only exists as a few coding lines at this time, but if YouTube decides to continue with it, it could be one of the most notable updates of the platform of recent years.
It seems that YouTube will do almost anything for more people to register for your YouTube premium service, and these attempts to attract it have been emerging quite frequently. A few weeks ago, YouTube launched its cheapest YouTube Lite level in the US.
Since I have memory, the adjustable video quality configuration has been part of the YouTube video improvements variety, but they have had no effect on audio playback. The audio quality of YouTube videos has always depended on the charger, so if the rumors of audio control are true, they could do wonders to get more audiophiles to jump in the YouTube premium car.
