JAKARTA - Google has launched a new feature for YouTube Music users in the United States, by bringing Podcasts to its service.

This update will allow those who watch podcasts on the main app to continue listening to them on YouTube Music.

"We're pleased to inform you that podcasts on YouTube are now available on YouTube Music! We're rolling this out to all of our listeners in the United States gradually, so what are you waiting for if you haven't seen it yet," wrote YouTube's Community Manager, Hazel in the announcement.

Interestingly, all listeners can enjoy podcasts on demand, whether offline, playing the podcast in the background, or also while casting and seamlessly switching between audio-video versions on YouTube Music.

"This podcast listening experience is different from our music listening experience in that you need a Premium or Music Premium subscription to enjoy some of these features," adds Google Presents the Podcasts Tab on YouTube Music, Try It Now! said Hazel.

With this Podcast feature, Google wants to present a new podcast listening experience that can complement the video podcast experience on YouTube.

Even though Podcasts is currently only launched in the United States, Google ensures that this service will be expanded to more countries in the future.

"For those of you outside the United States, rest assured that we plan to bring podcasts on YouTube Music to other territories in the future," he said.

Google notes that Premium & Music Premium members will get support to be able to read host or sponsor messages when listening to podcasts.
