Apple will sell subscriptions to streaming services through the TV app

According to Bloomberg, the Cupertino-based company is planning to offer a subscription system through the TV application, an application that is available for the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV in a small group of countries. This app kind of guide where according to our tastes and habitual consumption of content shows us recommendations.

But it not only shows us recommendations, but also informs us about the new content available on each of the platforms that we have associated with the application (HBO, Netflix ...) in this way, all the content via streaming that we have contracted in addition to the cable television services is focused in a single place.

Taking into account the type of service that it has become, it is not surprising that Apple wants to become a commercial for these platforms and allow the user to contract any streaming video service through the application, thus again the corresponding 30% would be pocketed, as long as all the services that offer the content available through this application are willing to give Apple 30% of each subscription.

As we read in Bloomberg, Apple will not start offering this service until the year That is coming, it may coincide with the launch of its streaming television service, a service that at the moment we do not know how Apple intends to present it to potential customers. At the moment the company is working on a dozen series, all of them its own, but there has been no talk about the possibility of Apple reaching an agreement with other streaming media to expand its catalog.

The alliance with Disney, it would have been very interesting and it would allow Apple to offer a wide variety of content, but as the CEO of Disney announced last year, this company is working on its own video streaming platformTherefore, the catalog of this company will only be available through its streaming service.
