"YouTube Red is not currently available in United Kingdom."

Is this thing live anywhere outside of the US?

Edit: it looks like YouTube Red actually has a support system. It just popped up on the find out more page. I clicked it out of curiosity and was first in line and the chat connected before I could react.

As I was there I asked when YT Red would be available in the UK.

"Hello, as of the moment we don't have any other information when its gonna be available in other countries." - I'm guessing that's we as in support rather than GooTube as an entity

Well it seems reasonable that they might have chosen to launch in the US only. I think even Google might be leery of launching services to more than 300e6 people at the same time. ;-)

Anyhow, my snarky comment was more related to the fact that this is yet another streaming media service (Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Amazon, Pandora, half of youtube, ...) that isn't available in Canada. Maybe Google will surprise me and offer it to us eventually /s

I do understand that they'd rather limit it than unleash it upon the world but it's unfortunate if lets say my favourite american YouTube channels start putting out Red content.. Let me throw money at you, Google!
