苹果2015全球开发者大会开幕
Apple announced its new music streaming service this morning, dubbed Apple Music.
苹果今天上午宣布启动新的音乐流媒体服务，苹果音乐。
Calling it a "revolutionary music service," legendary music industry figure Jimmy Iovine took the stage at the company's annual conference for developers to unveil what had been widely expected ahead of the event.
"Technology and art can work together, at least at Apple. So now, in 2015, the music industry is a fragmented mess. If you want to stream music, you can go over here. If you want to stream some video you can check some of these places out. If you want to follow some artists, there's more confusion for that. So I reached out to Tim Cook and Eddy Cue and I said guys, can we build a bigger and better ecosystem? With the elegance and simplicity that only Apple can do?"
Apple Music includes a service to connect artists and fans and what the company described as a global radio station called Beats 1.
The Connect feature of Apple Music will allow artists to post videos, photos and music directly to fans.
