Apple Music expected to get price cuts for single and family plans in the US

Apple Music is an excellent choice if you don’t want to carry a huge library of music. The service was launched last year and according to the last announcement by Apple, it has more than 17 million subscribers. According to a report from Digital Music News, Apple could be planning to bring a price cut to to the streaming service. The price cut go as much as 20 percent as the company wants to compete with services like Spotify and Amazon Music. A 20 percent discount would mean that the single subscription plan would go down from $9.99 (around Rs 660) to $7.99 (around Rs 527) per month. The family package, which allows for up to six members could also see price cut which means the $14.99 (Rs 990 approx) price point will now be $12.99 (Rs 860 approx). The $4.99 (Rs 330 approx) student plan will not see any changes. Current price: Single-person rate: $9.99 a month Family rate: $14.99 a month Student rate: $4.99 a month New rumoured price: Regular rate: $7.99 a month Family package: $12.99 a month Student rate: $4.99 a month There is no info as of yet if the discounts will come to all countries. But one thing is sure that India will not get the price cut if Apple does plan to introduce them. The reason for this is that India already has some of the cheapest price plans globally. While there is no student plan, the single user plan is priced at just Rs 120 per month while the family plan is available at Rs 190 per month.
