Apple Music’s streaming service is a separate offering that has grown larger than iTunes.
- ewmiller 6y agoWhat the person you’re replying to means, is that Apple Music was added on top of iTunes as a new service rather than iTunes being scrapped completely. If Google were to do the same thing, then google play music would still be around and not be getting killed in favor of youtube music.
- graeme 6y agoThat’s a fair point. Though in this case aren’t google play music and youtube music substantially similar services? Google’s reputation is that they will have 2-3 services with the same functionality. Whereas there are pretty legitimate business reasons you want want to make a streaming business distinct from a legacy content purchasing business.
