Yahoo Raises Prices of Music Service

Yahoo is raising the cost of its online subscription music service between $1 and $3 per month, depending on the customer's plan. Initially launched in 2005 at a price of $4.99 per month, Yahoo Music Unlimited will now cost $11.99 per month when purchased annually.

Without a year commitment, the service runs $14.99 per month. The last price hike was made in November 2005, when Yahoo raised the cost by $5 to $9.99 per month. At the time, Yahoo kept a version of Yahoo Music Unlimited without the ability to transfer songs to portable devices at $6.99 per month. That subscription will now cost $8.99, although only $5.99 per month if purchased annually. Still, Yahoo claims it continues to offer the lowest price of any such music service.
