Today, Paramount +<\/em> has launched a less expensive ad-supported streaming plan, called Paramount Plus Essential<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The new plan will cost $4.99 per month, and will include live sports, but will not include access to local CBS<\/em> stations. It will include “on-demand streaming options spanning the full suite of current and upcoming shows and movies including from the media conglomerate’s BET, CBS, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures<\/em> and the Smithsonian Channel<\/em>, as well as breaking news through CBSN<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Those still on the $5.99\/month plan will be able to keep that plan at that price, unless they cancel. The $5.99 plan will no longer be offered to new subscribers.<\/p>\n

Paramount +<\/em> has also announced that it will “significantly expand “its content offering this summer, including the premiere of Infinite<\/em>, a sci-fi action film, and over two thousand five hundred movies. One thousand of those movies will be available this week.<\/p>\n

“The breadth and depth of premium feature films and exclusive series coming to the service further strengthens our position in the market as a premium entertainment destination and, by offering this compelling content portfolio at an all-new low cost, makes us even more accessible to a wide consumer audience,” said Tom Ryan, President and Chief Executive Officer, ViacomCBS Streaming<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The ad-free Premium Plan<\/em> cost remains the same at $9.99 per month. For those who want a bargain, the annual payment option will save you sixteen percent over the monthly price.<\/p>\n

Star Trek<\/em> fans will have Star Trek: Lower Decks<\/em> to look forward to this summer. Season Two makes its debut on August 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
