Spotify just hiked fees, but there is a new, lower-cost tier for ad-free music.
Spotify recently stated that it will raise costs in the United States, but on Friday, it launched a new Basic plan that reinstates the $10.99 per month tier. This new option provides the same ad-free music listening benefits as the $11.99 Premium Individual tier, but you will not get the 15 monthly hours of audiobook listening that Premium includes.

Last year, Spotify increased the price of Premium from $9.99 per month — the price at which the service debuted in the United States more than a decade ago — to $10.99 per month. Now that Premium costs an additional $1, Spotify’s new Basic plan seems to show that there is a desire for a less expensive alternative that does not include audiobooks. It also establishes a music-only product priced at the same level as Apple Music and Tidal’s $10.99 monthly contracts.

Spotify also offers a $9.99 per month Audiobooks Access Tier, which includes 15 hours of monthly audiobook time, but if you want to listen to music on that plan, you will have to listen to advertisements.
