NEW APPLE MUSIC APP NOW AVAILABLE FOR ANDROID PHONES

Android device which is one of the most widely used operating system in the world now has the Apple Music subscription service. The new Android app is free at the Google Play store as of today. Android users access the same 3-month trial period like iPhone subscribers, to decide whether or not to pay the $9.99 monthly subscription fee. Apple’s music service directly competes with Google Play Music, of same monthly subscription cost of $9.99, but Google apparently wants Android users to have the option. Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook recently said his company’s music service now has 6.5 million subscribers, with 8.5 million users in a trial period. Android, the most popular mobile operating system in the world, represents an opportunity for Apple to dramatically increase the subscriber count for its music service. Apple needs its new music-streaming service on Android in the same way it needed iTunes on.
