As streaming service prices rise across the board, Pandora are the latest to join the parade raising their monthly premium.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After years of consistent prices, music streaming services (nearly) across the board have raised the cost of their services. Apple Music<\/a> and Amazon Music<\/a> both increased their individual streaming plans by $1\/\u00a31 last year<\/a>. Meanwhile, Spotify increased their price again in April for a monthly cost of $11.99\/\u00a311.99<\/a>, matched by Deezer who raised their prices directly to that amount last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pandora are joining the trend, raising the price of Pandora Premium to $10.99 for individuals. Their prices have risen across their subscription offerings, with their family plan increasing from $14.99 to $17.99 a month. According to a Pandora Community post<\/a>, the military plan has also risen from $7.99 to $8.99. The student plan has risen to $5.99 a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As many streaming prices have remained consistent since their inception, inflation has flown past. With questions over how much artists earn from music streaming and services like Spotify<\/a> trying hard to become profitable in recent years, price increases seem somewhat inevitable. It does however raise the question of how much will consumers be able to keep up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
