Apple Music is Apple’s service for streaming videos and music. Users of this service choose to stream music to a device on-demand. The tech giant announced the service on Jun 8, 2015, and launched it to more than 100 countries on June 30, 2015. From just music, Apple expanded the service to video streaming in 2016 to make it a “cultural platform.” Apple is pouring spending a lot of money on producing and purchasing video content including concert footage ad music videos.
