CHECK SUBSCRIPTIONS: If you are already signed up to Amazon Prime, you may not realise you can access Amazon Music Prime as part of your membership. This allows you to create playlists and stream songs and podcasts from a vast catalogue without additional cost. ACCEPT ADS: Spotify is one of the biggest music streaming platforms. You can open an account for free if you don't mind hearing ads periodically between tracks. It's a similar set-up with Amazon Music, you can open a free account and listen to tracks, if you can live with ads. FREE TRIAL: Take advantage of offers to stream music on no-advert plans. You can set up an Amazon Music Unlimited account on a free 30-day trial. Set a calendar reminder to cancel before the free period ends to avoid a charge. If you buy selected Apple products such as iPhones, you can claim a free three-month trial of Apple Music, which also allows you to set up playlists and play music from a huge catalogue. Secret ways to cut costs of your streaming subscriptions Spotify premium allows you to download music so you can listen offline, as well as listening without ads and you won't have to shuffle songs as you do on the free plan. The upgrade typically costs £11.99 a month but you can enjoy three months for free if you sign up before May 19. Or if you have had Premium before, you can get two months for £5.99 before it reverts back to £11.99 a month. TEAM UP: If you live with a friend or family member who wants to stream music, check if you can get a discount. For example, if you live at the same address with a friend or family member you can get a Spotify duo account for £16.99 a month, working out at just under £7 each. 8 A premium music subscription can take a chunk out of your monthly budget Credit: Getty All prices on page correct at time of going to press.
