Hulu And Spotify Announce Super Cheap Bundle For Students

Just in time for a new semester, Hulu and Spotify announced a brand new bundle that will soon be available for students. The bundle, will pair two of the top streaming services together for an ultra low price. Beginning today, students can sign up for both Spotify Premium and Hulu Limited plans for $4.99. That’s an incredible deal considering both services normally run $9.99 a month individually. 

This bundle is only available in the US currently, so international students can’t take advantage of this deal just yet. If you already subscribe to Spotify Premium, it’s still possible to take advantage of this student bundle. You must first cancel your current subscription, then sign up again under the new plan. Spotify says in doing this, you won’t lose your existing playlists.

This could be a mere coincidence, but I’m willing to be there’s a bit more behind this sudden new partnership. Companies are merging left and right, all in an effort to monopolize every screen you consume content with. Verizon and Comcast, AT&T and Time Warner, Sprint and Tidal, have all teamed up in an effort to increase their competitive advantage over other services. It makes sense for Spotify and Hulu to team up, especially in the wake of Spotify’s own video offerings not living up to the hype.

If you’re a college student looking for a cheap streaming solution, I think this may very well be the best deal available. Although this is the ad-supported version of Hulu, the bundled Spotify subscription is ad-free. That means you can stream, skip, and save all the music you want without limitations. If you’re curious about signing up, simply head on over to this website, and toss in the required info to start your account. This is probably a two-fer that you definitely won’t want to pass up.
