The 1TB Lightroom-only plan increases from $9.99 to $11.99 monthly, a 20% hike.Recent reports from Japan (originally published in Japanese) reveal the 20GB Photography & Lightroom plan will get a similar treatment there.Currently priced at 1,180 yen per month, the monthly plan will increase to 1,780 yen upon renewal after January 15, 2025.As in the US, any user who does not subscribe to the 20GB plan before January 15 will no longer be able to do so.The report also claimed the annual lump-sum payment option, costing 14,080 yen (equivalent to approximately 1,173 yen per month), will remain available and unaffected by the price hike.Sign up to the TechRadar Pro newsletter to get all the top news, opinion, features and guidance your business needs to succeed!Additionally, Adobe will provide a pro-rata refund for any remaining period on the monthly plan for those transitioning to the annual option.Efosa has been writing about technology for over 7 years, initially driven by curiosity but now fueled by a strong passion for the field.
