Apple Music Raises Subscription Prices on Student Plans

The email reads that Apple is observing this change for all. It will apply by June 20 for all subscribers in the region, focusing on its many subscription features available in various countries.
The current price it has on South Africa is $1.49, but it will soon change to $1.99 in United States Dollars for all under the Student Plan in the country. It is only a minimal $0.50 change, but there will still be a price increase that students will feel when they pay for their monthly subscription.
There are no announcements from Apple regarding this change and only the email to its subscribers.

Apple Music and its Offers for the World
Apple Music is a subscription platform that brings all things music to its subscribers, mainly focusing on iOS users with the native app built-in and available to their devices upon purchase. The Cupertino company's music streaming platform focus on bringing many features for everyone, particularly with its recent Spatial Audio addition.

However, there was a change in Apple Music's offers in recent times, as its three-month trial that will help on its subscription got reduced to one month only.
Subscribers are still using Apple Music for its accessibility and comprehensive library that help in bringing the latest and favorite songs to its users. The price hike in Apple Music's Student Plans is only minimal, but it will surely change many things in the platform as it is something that it did not announce for its subscribers in the current setup.
