What is the Apple Music student discount?
Eligible students get 40% off a monthly Apple Music subscription for a period of up to 48 months, or until they are no longer a student (whichever comes first).
This takes the monthly price of Apple Music down from $10 to just $6 (£10 down to £6 in the U.K.), which is a fantastic offer considering the service contains just about every artist you can think of within its catalog. Although this does represent a small price increase as prior to June 2022, the offer was a 50% reduction.
You also get a free subscription to Apple TV Plus, the company’s Netflix rival that offers a host of original programming and even some exclusive movies as well. Its library isn’t as diverse or sizeable as the likes of HBO Max or Disney Plus, but there’s still a range of content worth watching on the service.
