What will Apple Music TV be like (the anti Youtube)

What will Apple Music TV be like (the anti Youtube)

The broadcasts of Apple Music TV, a new music service dedicated (for now) to American citizens, are underway

Apple launches Apple Music TV: broadcasts have started on October 19. The service is active 24 hours a day and is currently available only in America.

The Bitten Apple competes directly with Youtube. All the details.

WHAT IS APPLE MUSIC TV?

Apple Music TV is exactly what it sounds like: it's music on television. It's a free, curated, 24/7 live stream of popular music videos. A modern reinterpretation of the old MTV TV channel, so to speak.

“It feels like a direct revival of YouTube's dominance in the music video space,” writes The Verge.

HOW TO USE APPLE MUSIC

The service is currently only available to US residents. It is possible to enjoy Apple Music on TV through the navigation tabs of the Apple Music app and the Apple TV app.

THE BITED APPLE

The channel designed by the Bitten Apple will host video previews, world premieres of films and concerts, exclusive unreleased videos (every Friday), live shows, specials, rankings and, of course, many guests ready to tell their performances. On the channel, Friday 23 October, Joji's “777” and Saint Jhn's “Gorgeous” will be broadcast. The day before, Thursday 22nd, the channel will host Bruce Springsteen and his instant album Letter to You. There will also be an interview with Zane Lowe, Apple Music's Global Creative Director and host of the newborn (or rather, freshly changed) Apple Music 1.

The opening on October 19 saw the top 100 most streamed songs on Apple Music air.

WILL APPLE SPODESTER YOUTUBE?

The new service offered by Apple is in direct competition with Youtube, the Google app where you can watch music videos and other content. It's hard to say if Apple will be able to unseat YouTube, the app that marked the end of MTV.
