The short of it? Amazon Music Unlimited does boast the cheapest price for streaming unlimited music for Prime members, but if music is the primary reason you've signed up for a Prime membership, it might not be worth it.

The equivalent on Apple Music, dubbed the Individual plan, also runs a $9.99 monthly fee. Spotify Premium (which allows unlimited, ad-free access to all libraries) offers the first month free to subscribers before charging a $9.99 monthly fee for the service. It should be said that Amazon Music's new annual prices for Prime members are still competitive in regards to other streaming giants. This was the first time increases in the service had been implemented since 2018.Ĭoinciding with this news, Amazon was down over 3.34% as of late Wednesday morning, and down around 1.63% y ear over year at the same time.

This latest price hike comes after February's increases for Annual Prime memberships, which jumped from $119 to $139, while monthly subscriptions increased from $12.99 to $14.99. Amazon Music provides Prime members with access to 100 million songs ad-free, the largest catalog of ad-free top podcasts, and thousands of playlists and Stations, included with Prime at no additional cost.
