NEW YORK, Oct 25 — Apple today increased the subscription prices of Apple TV+ and Apple News+, according to its website, the latest company to raise rates following similar moves by media giants.
The per month price of Apple TV+ has been increased by US$3 (RM14.3) to US$9.99, while Apple News+ has been priced at US$12.99, up from $9.99.
Recently, streaming giants Netflix and Disney too had raised their prices as they look to boost growth amid intense competition.
