YouTube TV

We took a fresh look at the YouTube TV free trial and found it a simple way to sample 100+ live channels, unlimited DVR, and big-name networks like ABC, CBS, FOX, ESPN, TNT, CNN, and FX. Sports fans can also test optional add-ons such as NBA League Pass during the trial period.

Apple Music

We took a fresh look at the Apple Music free trial and found plenty to explore: 100+ million songs, curated playlists, Spatial Audio albums like The Weeknd’s Dawn FM in Dolby Atmos, Apple Music 1 with Zane Lowe, and the occasional early release from top artists. It’s a low-friction way to see if the sound and curation click with you.

Audible

The Audible Premium Plus free trial is best for audiobook‑first listeners who want to keep 1 title per month forever, plus Audible Originals. If you enjoy finishing a book and owning it long term, this plan’s monthly title benefit aligns well with your habits.

Spotify

The Spotify Premium free trial feels like the full product: massive catalog, sharp recommendations, and a clean app that makes discovering new music effortless. We found the curated sets—RapCaviar, Today’s Top Hits, and Viva Latino—keep you exploring without hunting.

Hulu

The Hulu + Live TV free trial gives you the real thing: live TV plus Hulu’s on‑demand catalog in one app. In our testing, channel surfing felt familiar and quick, and flipping from a live game on ESPN to a Hulu original was seamless.
