Cost of Paramount+ Revealed at Last
Here's a fresh take on your request:
Hey there! The streaming world just got a new player – Paramount+. It's set to take over from CBS All Access and offer both ad-supported and ad-free options.
Starting March 4, the premium tier will cost you $10 a month. This babypalooza comes with some perks that the ad-supported tier won't offer. You'll get heaps of sports, local CBS news broadcasts, and CBS Live TV. But don't get too excited, there'll still be ads during the linear feed. A spokesperson shed some light on this, saying that the premium tier offers commercial-free on-demand viewing, just not the linear feed.
The ad-supported tier, launching in June, will cost only $5 a month. You'll get news on demand, sports, and a treasure trove ofcontent from ViacomCBS's vault.
In the future, Paramount+ might offer bundling options for services like BET+ and Showtime, giving you the power to pay for only the services you're interested in. The company plans to use their free ad-supported service, Pluto TV, to give you a sneak peek of what's on their paid services.
The opening day lineup includes 30,000 episodes and a slew of original series, movies, and reality content. Fresh content will be added every month, and you'll have access to exclusive sporting events, documentaries, and over 7,000 episodes of kid's content.
As for Paramount movies, they're expected to arrive on the service around 45 days after their theater debuts. Hit films like A Quiet Place Part II and Mission: Impossible 7 are on the list.
Now about those ads in the premium tier, we couldn't find specific details. But it's rumored that Paramount+ might have a higher ad load compared to some other premium services. Don't quote us on that, though! Streaming services are moving towards more linear-like experiences, but the specifics on ad content for premium tiers are still under wraps.
