In the US, premium family plans are the only ones getting pricier, increasing $1 a month to $16 as of Friday. People currently subscribed to a family premium plan may get one additional month at the current $15 price before the increase goes into effect for their June billing cycle.

In the UK, Spotify is raising the cost of its student, duo and family plans, with other plans going up in price in European countries as well. According to reports, prices are increasing by 1 to 2 British pounds and 1 to 3 euros per month, depending on the plan.

I still buy all my music and rarely stream. I use Amazon Prime music for streaming music. I used Spotify a long time ago.

Is that included with Prime membership or do I need to pay extra?

Included. but there is another version you can pay more for (I Don't). Basically anything new in behind the extra pay wall. But I have never had an issue with using the Prime version for what is essentially streaming radio.

The wife and I switched over to Apple One and haven’t looked back.

AM would be an option if they were available on my PS5. And if their apps weren’t so horrible.

We're approaching the point where the different music streaming services will have their own exclusive artists.

I dont listen to enough music to make me inclined to pay for a music sub plan. Maybe I'm missing out on tons of content, but when I listen to music I just listen to online radio stations (real stations) or any of the million free online stations.

I mostly listen to bands that I can buy their music on Bandcamp, or similar, then just use subsonic to stream. The freedom of self-hosting.

They have yet to turn a profit so I was expecting this
