Subscription prices across the entertainment industry are risingand Apple is joining the party. Apple announced that subscription prices for Apple Music, Apple TV+ and Apple One will increase immediately.
According to Apple, its music service is increasing in price due to more expensive licensing costs. Apple says artists and songwriters will, in turn, “earn more for the streaming of their music.”
Apple Music subscribers will see individual membership prices increase to $10.99 a month from $9.99 a month and family memberships increase to $16.99 a month from $14.99 a month. Any individuals on the annual plan will see an increase from $99 a year to $109 a year.
Apple TV+ was introduced at a relatively low price compared with other streaming video services at only $4.99 a month.
Monthly Apple TV+ subscribers will see their subscription price increase from $4.99 to $6.99. Those on an annual subscription will see an increase from $49.99 to $69.
Apple says the price increase is in line with the service’s increased selection of “award-winning and broadly acclaimed” content.
