Based on a source from within Apple, the increase in the subscription plans for Apple Music is due to a rise in licensing costs whereas the increased subscription plan for Apple TV+ is related to the growing catalog of Apple Original TV shows and movies that are available to watch.

Apple also stated that along with the increase in Apple Music subscription, artists and songwriters will earn more per stream as compared to before. 

Here’s what an Apple spokesperson had to say;

“The subscription prices for Apple Music, Apple TV+, and Apple One will increase beginning today. The change to Apple Music is due to an increase in licensing costs, and in turn, artists and songwriters will earn more for the streaming of their music. We also continue to add innovative features that make Apple Music the world’s best listening experience. We introduced Apple TV+ at a very low price because we started with just a few shows and movies. Three years later, Apple TV+ is home to an extensive selection of award-winning and broadly acclaimed series, feature films, documentaries, and kids and family entertainment from the world’s most creative storytellers.”

Based on the hike, the new prices of Apple Music, Apple TV+ and Apple One are as follows:
