Next year all of the service's original content will be free and without ads, but at the same time this means that there won't be much more new original content made available.
YouTube recently renewed shows like "Cobra Kai," "Kevin Hart: What the Fit," "Mind Field," "Foursome," and others, but future programming will focus on present YouTube stars.
Experts believe that the move is being made because YouTube Premium isn't doing as well as they expected.
