Amazon hiked Music Unlimited prices. Here's why Apple and YouTube are next

Take Amazon, which just hiked the price of its individual Music Unlimited plan to $11.99 a month, or $10.99/month for Prime members. The new price is effective immediately for new subscribers, while existing users will see the price hike on their next bill, TechCrunch reports. 

That price increase brings Amazon's music streaming prices up to par with Spotify's, which raised its individual Premium plan to $11.99 a month last June. (Spotify's Family and Duo plans got price hikes, too.) 


Meanwhile, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Tidal are holding the line at $10.99 a month for their music streaming plans—so for now, if you want to stream unlimited tunes, doing so on those services is a relative bargain. 

But that's probably not going to last for long, and if I had to wager, I'd bet Apple, YouTube, and likely also Tidal will all hit that $11.99-a-month price for individual music streaming before the year is up. Qobuz, meanwhile, already charges $12.99 per month (discounted to $10.83 per month if you pay up front for a one-year subscription).
