YouTube Music users in the country will soon be able to listen to their songs in the background while your phone screens are off or you're doing something else on your phone. What's great about this news is it's coming to free and Premium users. This is the first time YouTube Music offers a feature without requiring users to subscribe to its Premium tier. It is coming to Canada first, with other countries coming at an unspecified later date.
Starting November 3, it will be available on the standard ad-supported, personalized radio mixes, and any uploaded content you've added to your account. It might be a bit late in the game, given this is a feature we expect from music streaming apps. But at least we're getting first dibs.
