However, now Apple seems to have matched the industry standard. The official website for Apple Music now says that subscribers will get one month of free access to the music streaming service. Beyond the free trial of one month, the Apple Music streaming plan will renew at the price of Rs. 99 per month.

Thereafter, users will be able to activate their Apple Music trial after their pair their audio device to their iPhone or iPad. Apple also mentions that customers will have three months after they have purchased an eligible audio device to avail the offer.

The reduction in the trial period was first spotted by Macotakara and all the countries where Apple offers its music streaming services are affected. It is important to note that the company did not announce the reduction in the trial period officially and this is the first time such a change has happened since the service was launched in 2015. However, this reduction does not affect the six-month trial period that comes along with products such as HomePod Mini, AirPods and Beats. In comparison, Spotify is still offering a three month trial period to those who are willing to pay via PayPal.
