Recently launched is the FREE YOUTUBE FOR ALL, made for Smart, Sun, and TNT subscribers by simply dialing *123#—Smart’s easy-access portal for promos—to enjoy more hours of YouTube every day.

And to announce the wonderful news, they went all out with their campaigns to announce to the public like public and online ads. We were able to witness one of their commericals on the large LED billboard along EDSA corner Pioneer. As one of the biggest LED billboards on the road, thousands to almost a million commuters were able to see the good news about YouTube.
