Spotify is gearing up to introduce a new premium subscription tier called Music Pro, set to launch later this year. According to a Bloomberg report, this tier will offer lossless, high-quality audio, AI-powered remixing tools, and exclusive concert ticket perks. This long-awaited upgrade comes as the streaming giant looks to diversify its offerings and cater to dedicated music enthusiasts.

A Long-Awaited Hi-Fi Upgrade

Spotify first announced its Hi-Fi tier in 2021, but the feature never materialized. Meanwhile, competitors like Apple Music and Amazon Music launched lossless audio streaming at no additional cost. Now, Spotify is preparing to join the lossless audio market with Music Pro, though the company has yet to finalize licensing agreements with major record labels.

Pricing & Availability

Music Pro is expected to cost $5.99 per month on top of Spotify’s existing subscription fees. In the United States, where Spotify Premium is currently $11.99 per month, the total cost could reach $17.99 per month. Prices will vary across regions, with more affordable plans expected in countries like India, where Spotify Premium starts at just ₹119 per month (less than $1.50 USD).

AI-Powered Remixing Tools

One of the most intriguing features of Music Pro is its AI-powered remixing capabilities. This tool could allow users to blend tracks from different artists, offering a personalized music experience. However, it remains unclear whether artists and record labels will have the option to opt out of AI-generated remixes.

Exclusive Concert Perks

Beyond high-fidelity audio and AI tools, Spotify Music Pro subscribers could gain access to exclusive concert benefits. These may include early access to pre-sale tickets or better seating options, though details are still being discussed with ticketing companies and event promoters.

Spotify’s Strategy for Dedicated Fans

The launch of Music Pro aligns with Spotify’s strategy to cater to its most engaged users—those who actively invest in concerts, merchandise, and fan experiences. The company believes this high-end tier has the potential to attract millions of subscribers, despite the premium price.

While Music Pro promises to be more than just a Hi-Fi audio service, the full range of features is still being finalized. As Spotify works on licensing deals and its rollout strategy, more details are expected in the coming months.
