Are We Free From Price Increases to Apple Services This Year?

Apple announced price increases for some of its subscription-based services on October 24, 2022, and again on October 25, 2023, but no such announcement has been made as the same week of October comes to an end this year. Hopefully, that means no price increases are planned for the likes of Apple Music and Apple TV+ this year, but knock on wood.

Apple One Apps Feature 2
Here are the current monthly prices of Apple's services in the U.S.:

  • Apple News+: $12.99 per month
  • Apple Music: $10.99 per month
  • Apple TV+: $9.99 per month
  • Apple Fitness+: $9.99 per month
  • Apple Arcade: $6.99 per month

Apple One subscription bundle prices have not changed either.

Take this as a bit of good news on a Friday, or we reminded Apple that it still needs to increase prices and we will forever regret publishing this story.

$10.99 a month for Apple music is the same as one album purchase a month which gives your favourite artist more of the cut.
Or buy the CD, sometimes direct from the artist, rip it yourself at higher quality settings than Apple chooses for you (if you like), and basically cut Apple's take completely out of the transaction. Way back at the beginning, Apple encouraged exactly this action... so you would be doing what Apple encouraged themselves at one point...

Doesn’t matter. You just cancel and later you get multiple free months of whatever service you want. Everyone here knows that. ?

I think we are all weary of price increases. It's not standard to raise prices every year. Many companies got greedy after they saw we would pay more after covid inflation, but many of us are done - tapped out.

The last increase made it an easier decision to downgrade. While only a few bucks, Arcade and Apple TV+ isn’t worth it. Reduced back to iCloud and Music only to save some money per month.

I sure hope so...I've been cancelling my subscriptions left and right - raising the price will just give me an excuse to.
