Amazon, Apple not to charge extra for HD quality music
NY Post
Amazon and Apple have opened a new front in the music streaming wars that leaves the industry leader, Spotify, behind.
Apple Music and Amazon Music both unveiled plans Monday to offer lossless audio streaming, which is CD-quality or higher, for the same price as a regular monthly music subscription. Amazon Music previously charged $5 extra per month for customers who wanted higher-quality audio. Now, the option will be included with all subscriptions, which cost $9.99 for individuals, $7.99 for individual Amazon Prime members and $14.99 for families, the company said.
