Spotify is considering charging up to US$5.99/month on top of existing subscriptions for a new music streaming service that will include higher-quality audio, remixing tools and access to concert tickets, Bloomberg News reported on Friday.

The company might roll out the “Music Pro” tier this year, the report said, citing sources it did not name.

Spotify is still working through the details, and prices for the new service will vary by geography, with the cost lower in less-developed markets.

A Spotify spokesman said by e-mail that the company cannot confirm speculation around the potential details or feature set.

The new service, which would use artificial intelligence for some features, would allow subscribers to mix together songs from different artists, the report said, adding that the company has held preliminary talks with major promoters and ticket sellers.

In the US, Spotify’s largest market by revenue, it charges $11.99/month for its individual tier, which goes as high as $19.99 for the family plan that can house six members.

Spotify recently signed multi-year deals with Warner Music Group and Universal Music Group for recording and publishing music.
