蘋果于6月推出蘋果音樂，欲通過iTunes商店將其在數字音樂的主導地位延伸至由Spotify等企業所開創的音樂流媒體時代。蘋果音樂目前允許用戶免費試用90天，首批用戶的免費試用期限本月早些時候到期。

Analysts have predicted that Apple's service will find a strong following due to the vastinstalled base of iTunes users, but few think the iPhone maker will eclipse other musicstreaming companies. Spotify, the industry leader, has more than 20 million paid subscribersworldwide, the company has told Reuters.

分析師們此前預測，鑒于iTunes用戶的龐大基數，蘋果的服務將有大量粉絲，但沒有多少人認為蘋果能夠超越其他音樂流媒體企業。音樂流媒體行業領先者Spotify向路透表示，其在全球擁有逾2,000萬付費用戶。
