Category: YouTube Music Tips

Like many services, such as Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music, YouTube Music also offers a free one-month trial for users to experience its extensive music library and excellent features. During the trial, you can listen music ad-free, download songs offline, and play music in the background. When your free trial ends, your subscription will automatically renew into paid YouTube Premium membership ($10.99/month), or you can cancel the subscription. However, please note that if you don’t upgrade to YouTube Premium, you won’t keep downloaded YouTube Music songs anymore and can’t play them offline. But don't worry, by reading this article you'll get a tool that lets you keep YouTube Music downloads after free trial even if you don't upgrade your subscription to YouTube Music Premium.

Part 1. What Happens When the YouTube Music Free Trial Ends?

A free trial of YouTube Music offers the exact same benefits as a paid Premium membership. During the trial period, you can get to know whether the YouTube Music paid service is right for you. By enjoying features like ad-free listening, offline downloads, and background play, you’ll have a clear understanding of its value.

Next, look at what happens when the YouTube Music Free Trial ends. This will help you decide whether to continue as a Premium member or switch back to the free version.

A: Revert to the YouTube Music Free. If you don’t upgrade to Premium, remember to cancel your subscription before the free trial ends. You can still use YouTube Music, but you will no longer be able to enjoy the following premium features: ad-free playback, offline playback, and background playback.

B: Keep the Premium Renewed. If you decide to renew your subscription, it usually costs $10.99/month. You can seamlessly continue to enjoy all Premium features.

Retain Personalized Content. Even if you don't renew your subscription, your personal data such as song lists, favorites, play records, etc. will be kept intact so that you can resume your Premium membership at any time in the future.

The End

Before subscribing to YouTube Music Premium, you can take advantage of YouTube Music's free trial to explore premium features first. At the end of the free trial, you can choose to subscribe to YouTube Music Premium or revert back to YouTube Music Free. If you revert back to YouTube Music Free, you won't be able to keep YouTube Music downloads after free trial ends and play your carefully downloaded songs offline. This is really disappointing. Luckily, you still have NoteBurner which can help you keep your favorite YouTube Music tracks forever without Premium.

Note: The free trial version of NoteBurner YouTube Music Converter allows you to convert the first 1 minute of each song. You can buy the full version to unlock this limitation and enable all its features.
