- Amazon wanders awards for his music unlimited plans.
- The music’s unlimited individual plan without prime is now the same price as Spotify.
- There is a larger case that needs to be made for another streaming service.
If you are currently getting your music fix with the permission of Amazon Music Unlimited, we have some bad news: Whether you are a prime member or not, it is becoming more expensive to listen to your favorite songs, albums and playlists in this way.
Amazon has announced a price increase for all levels of its Amazon Music Unlimited Streaming Service and published an FAQ describing the changes.
For Prime members, an individual plan jumps to $ 10.99 a month from $ 9.99, and an annual subscription is now $ 109 from $ 99. Without Prime – though I’m not sure how many subscribers this might be – is a music that is unlimited individual plan, from $ 10.99 to $ 11.99.
If you subscribe as a family, the unlimited plan for music gets the biggest increase of $ 19.99 monthly from $ 16.99 and $ 199.99 from $ 169.99 for an annual plan.
For individuals, the climb now sets music unlimited without prime at the same price as Spotify, $ 11.99 for an individual plan. Even with a prime membership, Amazon Music Unlimited is not as much of an apartment purchase as it once was.
The new prices are in effect right now, per. January 29, 2025, for new customers, and people who are already enrolled in music unlimited with or without the primary membership discount will the new prices on March 5, 2025. It will depend on when your billing cycle date falls.
Given the price increases, the choice of Amazon over Spotify or another streaming service becomes a little harder to answer. I personally use both Apple Music and Spotify, and many of my colleagues favors one of these, especially for the wrapped experience of the latter.
Of course, Amazon Music Unlimited offers the essentials, including ad-free streaming, playlists and some curation. Furthermore, it even offers HD sound and lossless, something we are still waiting for Spotify to match .. Apropos of it, have we heard of Spotify Hi-Fi even in 2025?
And what Amazon Music Unlimited is missing, let’s say, in curation, Apple Music and Spotify more than compensate for, not to mention with major alleged user bases, there is a better chance that some of your friends may be using one or two of them. Apple Music still offers radio stations and various playlists curated by artists, and Spotify has pushed with his AI DJ and ever -popular ‘day list’ offers.
Like Netflix’s reasoning for its price increases earlier this month, Amazon is also showing more features in the future. In FAQ, Amazon writes, “To bring you even more content and new features, we will update the price of Select Amazon Music Unlimited plans.”
One advantage of Music Unlimited is that it is easily integrated with Amazon Echo Smart speakers and screens, but you can also switch to your preferred platform just as easily.
