This music streaming service is expected to be launched as an update to the new iOS 8 update this summer but its likely to be launched as one of the main features for iOS 9. As many Beats executives have already left Apple and the Cupertino based company is struggling like never before to develop its Android application and some of the recent postings about the job in Apple have made it crystal clear that the Android focused developers hired for this streaming service have also left the company.
With the streaming service's delayed launch Apple will have to cornerstone the Apple Watch and its demonstration and introduction for the third party WatchKit applications. We expect that Apple will discuss the pricing and accessories before its ship date in April.
