As eMusic members know, there has never been a better time to be a music fan than right now. So many amazing artists are making vital, inspiring music and it's here for you, at eMusic. In the past four years, eMusic's catalogue has exploded from 250,000 to nearly 4 million tracks covering every genre imaginable. Think of how much music that is—more than we could listen to in a lifetime, and all of it available here for less than you would pay anywhere else. That won't change, but the price of eMusic will. Effective June 17th 2008 for new subscribers the price for eMusic's Monthly Basic Plan will increase from $9.99 to $11.99 for 30 downloads. This increases the price per download to $0.40 for new members—still the best price per song going.
What it Means for You
Your price will also go up, effective July 17th 2008. But because you are a valued eMusic member, you will receive an additional 10 downloads per month. Your new “grandfather” plan means you actually pay less per download. Here's how it breaks out:
| Cost per month | # of Downloads | Cost per Download | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your Current Plan: | $9.99 | 40 | $0.25 |
| Your New Plan: | $11.99 | 50 | $0.24 |
And on August 17, all active, grandfathered members will receive a one-time, special 10-track booster pack (good for 30 days) as our way of saying thanks for being a loyal subscriber.
Good Things to Come
We're adding thousands of new songs and artists to eMusic every day, and our editorial team will continue to guide you to the best music and audiobooks. And we will be making the eMusic website and experience friendlier, easier and more powerful in the coming months as well, including a new and improved download manager, a site redesign and many more of the features that you have asked for.
