Its student plan has gone up a dollar to $6.99 per month. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe new price still puts Apple Music at $1 less per month than its chief rival Spotify, whose cheapest premium plan goes for $12.99. Spotify confirmed a price hike of its own back in January as well. Spotify\u2019s premium subscription, though, also includes 15 hours per month of audiobooks. (That audiobooks offering has been controversial in the music publishing industry, as the bundle allows Spotify to pay out a lesser royalty rate to songwriters.)<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=3811\">How Samantha Morton Pulled Off Her Wild \u2018The Odyssey\u2019 Performance as Circe: \u201cI Wanted to Possess It\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tPrice hikes of course frustrate consumers, and today\u2019s change will likely be no different. Still, industry stakeholders including the major record labels have been advocating for streaming services to charge more for years, both to account for inflation and to close the gap with what they argue is still an undervalued product as what amounts to the cost of one CD now gives customers access to hundreds of millions of songs.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tApple last raised its price on Apple Music in October 22, also raising Apple TV+\u2019s price at the time. Apple similarly attributed the 2022 music price hike to rising licensing costs. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=3809\">West Hollywood Flooding Forces Road Closures, Business Shutdowns Around Sunset Strip<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple Music is raising its subscription prices, with its standard premium subscription now going for $11.99 per month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3814,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2681,421],"class_list":["post-3815","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting","tag-apple-music","tag-spotify"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
