Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year’s $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan is going up by a whopping $3, increasing from $17 to $20 monthly. The only subscribers getting a break are students, who will continue to pay $6 monthly.

Spotify announced the price hikes less than a year after its previous one last July. Before that, Spotify hadn’t raised its fees since launching a decade and a half ago. I guess it was too optimistic to hope the next increase would also take that long, especially with Spotify’s continued focus (and money dump) on audiobooks.

Premium subscribers should receive an email from Spotify in the next month detailing the price hike and providing a link to cancel their plan if they would prefer to do so. Users currently on a trial period for Spotify will get one month at $11 after it ends before being moved up to a $12 monthly fee.

    You on their payroll? You sound like you’re on their payroll. Everyone I know ditched that garbage years ago.

      Ah yes, you know so many people that it somehow becomes equivalent to a healthy sample size of the entire human population. Got it.

          Not at all! I had fun typing out the comment while considering the implications of your comment! :P

          Thanks for the good time.

          Most people tend to be triggered by ignorance paraded as knowledge and petulant personal attacks due to an inability to engage like an adult.

          To be fair.

      fails to see reality

      Reality is shown to them

      Doubles down on their ignorance of reality

      This thread is a textbook example of:

      Don’t argue with morons. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

      Instead of actually arguing the topic at hand you are trying to drag all repliers down to your level, act in bad faith, and beat them with personal attacks 🤣

      Classic.

        That was a lot of typing to avoid a simple question. You’re either a shill or you’re on their payroll.
