Apple Music is getting a price hike

Apple Music 订阅价格上涨

Apple Music is more expensive now. In the US, an individual plan now costs $11.99 per month, a $1 bump up from the previous $10.99 price. A family plan now costs $19.99 per month, up from $16.99, and a student plan costs $6.99 per month, up from $5.99. Apple, in a statement to Music Business Worldwide, says it is increasing prices “as a result of rising licensing costs.”

Apple Music 现在涨价了。在美国，个人订阅计划现在的月费为 11.99 美元，比之前的 10.99 美元上涨了 1 美元。家庭计划现在的月费为 19.99 美元（之前为 16.99 美元），学生计划的月费则从 5.99 美元涨至 6.99 美元。苹果在给《Music Business Worldwide》的一份声明中表示，此次涨价是“由于授权成本上升”所致。

Music Business Worldwide also reports that prices have gone up in the UK and Europe, and the publication “understands” that hikes are hitting other countries as well. Apple didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment from The Verge.

《Music Business Worldwide》还报道称，英国和欧洲的价格也已上涨，该媒体“了解到”涨价范围正在波及其他国家。苹果公司未立即回复《The Verge》的置评请求。
