That\u2019s a $1 increase from the current $9.99 price, and it was only $7.99 during the first half of last year.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse, if you\u2019re enjoying Music Unlimited on a discounted trial or promotion offer, Amazon will only honor that price for one month. The new pricing will go into effect on the next billing cycle.<\/p>\n<p>And while Prime Music is still bundled with an Amazon Prime membership, it only features \u201cshuffle and play,\u201d meaning you can\u2019t listen to a song anytime, anywhere. It shuffles Amazon\u2019s expansive list of nearly 100 million songs.

However, if you want unlimited access to\u00a0Amazon\u2019s nearly 100-million song catalog and HD streaming, it\u2019ll cost you even more.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: Amazon<\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
