\u201cIt\u2019s not one thing that excites us here. It\u2019s the people. It\u2019s the service. It\u2019s all about the music.\u201d (Tim Cook)<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In einem Brief an die Mitarbeiter erl\u00e4utert Tim Cook, warum dieser Deal so wichtig f\u00fcr Apple sei.<\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s history in music began with selling Macs to musicians. That remains important to us today, but we also bring music to hundreds of millions of customers with iTunes, which is at the forefront of the digital music revolution. Music holds a special place in our hearts at Apple, and we know that we can make an even bigger contribution to something that is so important to our society. That\u2019s why we have kept investing in music and why we\u2019re bringing together these extraordinary teams \u2014 so we can continue to create the most innovative music products and services in the world.<\/p>\n

Beats co-founders and music industry pioneers Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre will join Apple, along with their team of employees. Jimmy has been on the cutting edge of innovation in the music industry for decades, including as a key partner for Apple in the launch of the iTunes Music Store more than ten years ago. He has produced or collaborated with some of the most popular artists in history, and been an important contributor to the success of the iTunes Store.<\/p>\n

Beats Music was built with deep respect for both artists and fans. We think it\u2019s the first subscription service to really get it right. Both Apple and Beats believe that a great music service requires a strong editorial and curation team, and we will continue to expand what we do in those areas. The addition of Beats will make our incredible iTunes lineup even better, extending the emotional connection our customers have with music.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\"\"<\/a>
