The price of the subscription Prime Spotify will increase 1 euro next summer, and the change could occur next June. This is the last filtration from internal sources of the company, which at the same time prepares an even more expensive “super premium” subscription.
Partly, this last change of Spotify is not entirely surprising. Last year, Spotify increased the premium price in one dollar for accounts in the United States, compared to $ 10.99 per month to $ 11.99 per month. In the same way, in Europe Spotify Premium will cost 10.99 dollars per month to 11.99 dollars per month; A climb that seems small, but will be the second in two years. Recall that Spotify has already increased prices in Europe in 2023, from 9.99 dollars to current 10.99 dollars.
Filtration, published by Financial timedoes not specify if all the Spotify subscriptions will undergo a climb, but it is very likely. If we look at the American increases, the Duo Spotify plan increased by $ 16.99 per month, and the family plan increased to $ 25.99 per month. SO, We expect the new prices in Europe to be similar, but in dollarsSomething that Spotify has not officially confirmed.
The most shocking of this price increase may be that It will come without modifications to better in the Spotify service; Users will simply pay more than before, without any novelty or improvement to compensate. It is something particularly striking, taking into account that Spotify is one of the few music streaming services that still does not offer its high definition, because they offer alternatives such as Apple Music or Amazon Music at the same price.
To access the sound in high definition, Spotify is preparing a more expensive new subscription, which would add $ 6 to $ 11.99 which will cost the basic subscription; Therefore, this new version “Super Premium” would potentially cost 17.99 dollars per month in totalA quota that mainly exceeds musical streaming services and is out of reach of many users.
However, Spotify and the music industry seem to be convinced that these super premium plans are the future of the sector, Something they call “Streaming 2.0”. It would be a new experience, more exclusive than that current, in which fans could enjoy the songs and concerts of their favorite artists before anyone.

In addition to high definition sound, a super premium subscription would allow Access exclusively to new songsWith an early access system or early access that is already used in the video game sector. In this way, fans who wish to listen to the new theme of their favorite artist will have to buy the most expensive subscription. Other possible advantages are exclusive access to concert tickets.
Although it seems that Spotify is one of the first to jump to this more expensive “streaming 2.0”, it will not be the only one. The same filtration indicates that Apple, Amazon and YouTube also prepare premium versions From their services, although they also warn that these plans can change.
