Sonos is adding another string to its bow with support for YouTube Music, chucking in another service to an already-stocked lineup.
If you're a YouTube Music Premium or YouTube Premium subscriber you can start streaming on your Sonos speakers starting today. Sonos already supports Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Play and even Apple Music. However YouTube Music stands apart from the crowd with its broad catalogue of live performances, covers and remixes.

You'll also get curated playlists tailored to your listening habits, YouTube charts and new releases, along with all the tunes you've saved to your YouTube library.
If you're not already a subscriber, YouTube Music does offer an ad-supported free tier, but it doesn't work with Sonos. Instead you'll need the $9.99-a-month "Premium" version to make use of the new integration There's a three month trial available if you want to give it a taste and see if it's a good fit.
