YouTube Premium got a little more expensive earlier this year, with the Individual plan going from $13.99 to $15.99 per month while the Family plan jumped from $22.99 to $26.99. Today, YouTube’s made an announcement that might help justify the new higher subscription fee for some users.

In a blog post, YouTube has announced that the YouTube Premium subscription will soon include access to Peacock Premium’s content, including live pro sports, movies from Universal, and shows like Saturday Night Live and The Office.

YouTube says the partnership also means that some live sporting events will also be broadcast on the NBC Sports YouTube channel.

This all comes after YouTube began offering access to ad-free Peacock Premium Plus for an additional fee last month as a Primetime Channels add-on.

The ad-supported Peacock Premium plan costs $10.99 per month on its own, so the addition adds quite a bit of value to a YouTube Premium subscription. Neither announcement mentioned further YouTube Premium price adjustments.

NBCUniversal says that Peacock Premium is coming to YouTube Premium starting early next year.
