Apple Music is the alternative to Spotify that the Cupertino company decided to launch and against which Spotify knew how to defend itself with an iron fist. Years later, most expectations are met, Apple Music is not a real rival in number of users against Spotify, however, it has a very important base of millions of users (Apple users of course) that has made it popular in an immense variety of devices. The new approach of Apple and Samsung culminates with the arrival of the Apple Music application to Samsung Smart TVs, Were you looking forward to this arrival?
Starting today, the Samsung Smart TVs launched since 2018 receive an update in their application store that will allow you to download Apple Music. This is especially relevant for two reasons: The first is that Samsung is one of the world's leading TV manufacturers and sellers; The second is that many Apple users who have Samsung televisions will be able to take advantage of their multimedia centers such as speakers and sound bars associated with these televisions to listen to music at home. It is undoubtedly an alternative that will relieve many users, especially those who have Hi-Fi equipment or of various types connected to television.
This agreement has been made with the intention of offering the best entertainment experiences to our consumers. Now that people are spending more time at home, we have to show even more determination to carry out this mission - Salek Bordsky / Vice President of Business and Development at Samsung.
Thus, Samsung is definitely the best positioned in this of adapting Apple's protocols in its devices, we already have AirPlay 2, HomeKit, Apple TV and now Apple Music, we would never have imagined it from Apple, but this looks pretty good.
