Apple hikes subscription prices for Apple Music, Apple TV+, and its Apple One bundle

Apple’s services segment is likely to capture one-fourth of the company’s total revenue in 2025, according to Counterpoint Research’s Apple 360 service.

Well, we knew it was bound to happen, didn’t we? And according to 9to5Mac, Apple is today increasing the prices of its Apple Music, Apple TV+ and Apple One bundle.

With Apple One you get Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, iCloud+, News+, and Fitness+. It’s available in three plans. Here’s the full updated pricing breakdown for the U.S.

Apple Music

  • Individual: $10.99 per month (from $9.99)
  • Family: $16.99 per month (from $14.99)
  • Individual Annual: $109 per year (from $99)

Apple TV+

  • Monthly: $6.99 per month (from $4.99)
  • Annual: $69 per year (from $49.99)

Apple One

  • Individual: $16.95 per month (from $14.95)
  • Family: $22.95 per month (from $19.95)
  • Premier: $32.95 per month (from $29.95)An Apple spokesman had this to say to 9to5Mac: The subscription prices for Apple Music, Apple TV+, and Apple One will increase beginning today. The change to Apple Music is due to an increase in licensing costs, and in turn, artists and songwriters will earn more for the streaming of their music. We also continue to add innovative features that make Apple Music the world’s best listening experience. We introduced Apple TV+ at a very low price because we started with just a few shows and movies. Three years later, Apple TV+ is home to an extensive selection of award-winning and broadly acclaimed series, feature films, documentaries, and kids and family entertainment from the world’s most creative storytellers.
