Amazon Hikes Prices on Unlimited Music Plans

variety.com:

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor Amazon is raising prices on its Music Unlimited plans, coming two months after it added access to Audible’s collection of audiobooks.

In a section of Amazon Music FAQs titled “2025 Subscription Plan Pricing Changes,” the ecommerce giant says, “In order to bring you even more content and new features, we’re updating the price of select Amazon Music Unlimited plans.” The ad-free Amazon Music Unlimited includes 100 million songs and “thousands of expert-programmed playlists and stations,” the company says.

The service competes with Spotify Premium and Apple Music. The cost of an Amazon Music Unlimited individual plan for Prime members is rising from $9.99 to $10.99 per month (or $99 to $109 per year).

For customers without Prime, the price is going from $10.99 to $11.99 per month. In addition, the price of the Amazon Music Unlimited Family plan (which offers up to six accounts) is going from $16.99 to $19.99 per month (or $169 to $199 per year).
