'Apple One' Bundles Introduced With Apple Music, Apple TV+ and More, Pricing Starts at $14.95/Month

[gsmornot]

Premier is the right one for me. I already buy for the family Music, News, 2TB iCloud and Apple TV+. That's $40 in subscriptions that will become $30 plus we can replace another workout subscription with the one included and we get Arcade. So, this may not be the plan for some but for someone like me its a great deal.

 

[jwhite9185]

I’d be tempted to go for the individual plan if it had 2TB storage, as I would save on a monthly basis, plus get Arcade thrown in for free.

As it stands, the 200gb or whatever it is, is totally useless for me.

 

[g1gantor]

Apple One, One Drive, Google One, Xbox One, One+... when are the two's coming out?

 

[m4mario]

For someone who is subscribed to Apple Music, the individual plan is a no brainier. And its also a no brainier for any iPhone user subscribed to Spotify as a paying customer. Why pay $9.99 to Spotify, when you can get iCloud, TV and arcade for $5 more? They may not be much, but those 3 services combined are definitely worth $5.

Spotify should not have bit the hands that feed it.

 

[StuBeck]

Wish you could mix and match services. I don't need Apple TV or music, but am interested in fitness, going from spending $3 a month to $30 isn't going to happen.

 

[xmagicx]

Completely nonsense. I might use it when will be able to choose what services I want to have.

 

[ruimpinho]

Apple Arcade is a joke, Apple TV isn't worth it. Paying to watch gym videos? Don't think so.

Apple Music and iCloud storage is the only thing I need. Offer a $15 2TB family option and it will sell like hot cakes.

 

[gregohb]

As usual Apple feels they know what is best with little flexibility. I would take News and iCloud. their tv offerings are pitiful.

 

[The Boatman]

If you’ve got annual plans for Arcade, Music and TV+ that all run out at different times, is there a way to upgrade?

 

[norbinhouston]

But that's just skipping 4 Starbucks coffees!

 

[DConroy]

So news + only in the top tier? On the fence about TV+, only show I liked in the first year was MythicQuest. Curious about Arcade, don't use icloud for any permanent storage and loathe all streaming services(ok maybe pandora's free tier). Nothing here for me I guess. If there was a News, TV and Arcade bundle for 10-15 I might try.

There are three tiers of Apple One available, including Individual, Family, and Premier:

• Individual: Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and 50GB of iCloud storage for $14.95 per month
• Family: Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and 200GB of iCloud storage for $19.95 per month
• Premier: Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, Apple News+, Apple Fitness+, and 2TB of iCloud storage for $29.95 per month

• Individual: $5.97 savings (or $20.96 value)
• Family: $7.97 savings (or $27.96 value)
• Premier: $29.99 savings (or $54.94 value)

I am currently subscribing to iCloud 2TB ($9.99). I will be paying for Apple TV+ once the free year offer expires. So I will be getting Apple Music and Apple Arcade for free.

 

[aajeevlin]

Currently I’m at:
- Apple Music family: $15
- 2 TB storage: $10

So...assuming premier is family:
- fitness+ (Which I would totally use)
- arcade(eh..)
- appleTV (I do like Ted lasso!)
- news (eh..I guess I can consume more..)
=$5

I think that may be worth the extra $5 for me and my fam.

Did I do the math right?

You are in the same boat as me. I have 2TB and I think the wife will like Apple TV+ and fitness. And I get Apple Music which I’m sharing my friends Spotify sharing the cost.

 

[idktbh]

they use 5400rpm external hard drives for the 50gb iCloud thing

 

[McScooby]

They rattled thru this part like an infomercial, where was international pricing? Nvm it's on the website.

 

[gpspad]

Apple Music (Individual) - Annually $99
200GB iCloud (Family) - Annually $35.88 (Monthly $2.99)
Apple TV+ (Individual) - Annually $49.99

= $184.87

The plans as described would force me to upgrade to the "Family" package for everything which would be $239.40 per year.

I know I am in the minority here. However, in my case this is not a good deal.

Same deal with me, I was hoping to add to the 200GB storage I get now, but would have to go all the way up to the $20/month plan to get the same storage. No thanks.

 

[mikesilv]

How is 2TB low?

You realize, there are more than just the premier plan levels? And those other levels have ridiculously low storage bundles.

 

[steevn]

Why didn’t they do a pick 2, 3, 4, Etc For $12, $16, $20, Etc?

Looks like I’ll be doing the family plan and buy Fitness+ one year at a time.

 

[DaveMcM76]

Given that at the moment $1 = £0.76 I was hoping the UK pricing might come in slightly under the US rather than just swapping out the currency symbol, but I guess that's not to be... still not a bad deal if you currently subscribe to the individual services.

 

[Dimwhit]

Family Apple Music is already $14.99, 200 GB storage is $2.99. That's $17.98. The Family tier is no-brainer at that price, especially since we are already paying for Apple News too. (We're on a free trial of Apple TV+.) It would save us money.

If Premier includes Family sharing too, then it's an instant upgrade. It would make iCloud usable for Mac storage too.

This is where I am. I pay for Apple Music Family and 200GB storage. I just have to decide if an extra $12/month is worth the rest.

 

[neuropsychguy]

200GB for family? Pffff.....

That's the weak part of the family bundle. 500 GB would have been just about perfect.

 

[m7ammed]

I have Apple Music family for 14.99 and iCloud 2 Tb for 9.99, so for an additional 5$ I can get Apple Arcade, TV, news and fitness. Sounds like a steal!

Works for up to 6 family members.

from the apple website https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2020...apple-subscription-services-easier-than-ever/

• Premier, where available, includes Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, Apple News+, Apple Fitness+, and 2TB of iCloud storage for $29.95 per month, and can be shared among up to six family members.

 

[cardfan]

Sorry Apple. No interest here.

 

[moabal]

Same deal with me, I was hoping to add to the 200GB storage I get now, but would have to go all the way up to the $20/month plan to get the same storage. No thanks.

Glad to know I am not alone!

 

[BornAgainMac]

I prefer this bundle over getting things separate. I am a bit disappointed it isn't available yet.
