Apple Music is raising its subscription fees for the first time in nearly four years, according to a report. The streaming service last increased prices in October 2022. The new pricing will affect both individual and family plans, though exact amounts have not yet been disclosed. This move comes as other music streaming platforms like Spotify and Amazon Music have also adjusted their prices in recent years, citing rising content costs and investments in features like lossless audio and spatial audio. Apple Music launched in 2015 and has grown to become one of the leading music streaming services globally, with over 100 million songs. The price increase is expected to take effect soon for new subscribers, while existing users may see changes on their next billing cycle. Apple has not officially commented on the reasons for the hike, but industry analysts suggest it aligns with broader trends in the streaming market. The company continues to offer a student plan at a lower rate. Subscribers are advised to check their account settings for updated pricing details.
