"Your Spotify subscription is about to get a little more expensive. In a message to subscribers earlier this week, the music streamer said it was "updating the price of Spotify," and that Premium users would get an email over the next month explaining what that meant for their subscription.

Spotify is raising prices across its paid plans. Premium will increase from $11.99 to $12.99 per month. Student will increase from $5.99 to $6.99 per month. Duo will increase from $16.99 to $18.99 per month. Family will increase from $19.99 to $21.99 per month. The new prices take effect on the subscriber's next monthly bill.
