Apple Announces Apple Music: The Next Chapter in Music

Apple has announced a new music streaming service, 'Apple Music'.

Right now, the music experience is fragmented. Fans need to use a lot of different services to listen to and connect with their favorite artists.

Apple Music provides all artists, even the kids in their bedrooms, a way to engage with their audience.




Highlights:
● Revolutionary music service
● 24/7 global radio
● Connecting fans with artists


Revolutionary Music Service:
Apple Music is a revolutionary music service curated by the world’s leading music experts.
Because the only thing as important as the song you’re listening to is the song that follows it. With Apple Music, you still have your iTunes library. And a lot more.

Tens of millions of tracks in the iTunes library are available for you to stream or save for offline listening. You can even share playlists, albums, and videos.



Get recommendations for albums and playlists you’ll love from experts — real people who know and love music.


Discover new artists and albums every week. And get playlists for every activity, and from every genre.


24/7 Global Radio:
Apple Music will have a groundbreaking 24/7 global radio station. Broadcasting nonstop to over 100 countries from LA, New York, and London.

Apple Music features Beats 1. Music, interviews, guest hosts, news, and culture. No matter where you are, you can hear the same programming as every other listener.


The radio station will feature some of the world’s best voices, like Zane Lowe.

Connect:
Apple Music gives artists a single place to connect with fans. Artists can post their latest tracks, behind-the-scenes photos, in-progress lyrics, or a new remix. You can love or comment on your favorites.


Unsigned artists can share their music on Apple Music, too. So music lovers and the entire music industry can hear it.

Starting on June 30, Apple Music will launch with a 3-month free membership, after which a $9.99/month subscription fee will apply. There will also be a family plan providing service for up to six family members available for just $14.99/month.
