    I think Apple Music will not be the next big thing because the market is already over-saturated. Again, Apple is late to the party. People already have great streaming services with the same content.

    Besides that, Apple already failed horribly once with "Ping", their way of personalized listening. Anyone remembers?

    I just don't see why I should cancel my perfectly working spotify subscription. It has everything besides Taylor Swift, works on all my devices and costs the same as the capped Apple stuff.

    • True on all counts. If it succeeds, it'll be due to convenience/integrat... and migration of those who only buy iTunes tracks (tons, btw).monospaced
    • By that logic, they shouldn't have started with iPhones because the Newton didn't sell.CyBrainX
    • Oh, I forgot about CarPlay... I think Apple Music will enter there too and do fairly well.monospaced
    • Does this mean Apple has Taylow Swift??!?!formed
    • no... does anyone stream Taylor Swift?monospaced
    • The market share of cars that are capable of CarPlay is so low and extremely low growing. @CyBrainX: The iPhone was something new, Apple Music is one of many.mekk
    • it's low because it is brand new, and it is growing extremely fast, actually, with many major manufacturers incorporating itmonospaced
    • I can't even think of a single car-maker that ISN'T supporting itmonospaced
    • yes but only in new cars with bigger screens. look out of your window, how many cars are new and expensive enough to support it?mekk
    • all of themmonospaced
    • you live in hollywood or what?mekk
    • NYC, but honestly, almost all cars have big screens now, and it's not just the big new expensive onesmonospaced
    • what about the radio Thing. that could be a HIT. (if they manage to do it really good)uan
