Also during this period, Apple has officially activated new pricing for iCloud service with much cheaper prices than before. In new iCloud Cost, a 5GB free package is also there, but for 50GB per month charged at $0.99 (previously 20GB at $0.99), 200GB at $2.99 per month (previously 100GB at $3.99), 1TB at $9.99 per month (previously 20GB at $19.99).
