iTunes Radio will no longer be free

  • 8 years ago
Apple will soon begin charging for iTunes Radio before January ends.
This means Beats 1 is going to be the only free music service from the Cupertino-based company.
Apple sent out an email to iTunes Radio users notifying them that starting Jan. 28, this music streaming service, which was launched to take on Pandora, will no longer be free.
"We are making Beats 1 the premier free broadcast from Apple and phasing out the ad-supported stations at the end of January," said an Apple spokesperson to BuzzFeed News.
This latest move from Apple shows that Apple Music is one of its priority services.
Speculation is rife saying that Apple has already reached as many as 10 million customers in the first six months.
