Monday was supposed to be the biggest event out for Apple and company’s vision.
Apple announced Apple TV+, its subscription video service for original programs, and displayed a handful of series starring Jennifer Aniston, Kumail Nanjiani and Oprah Winfrey.
However, company did not mentioned how much Apple TV+ would cost. Apple had beforehand planned to give away at least some of its original content for free, so according to reports new pricing information was hotly anticipated.
In addition, even if the shows are fantastic, a consumer could watch them all in a month. It made no sense to announce a subscription video service with no library.
The Lack of information in event was clearly on display.Apple also failed to discuss its future content spending plans. If Apple also did not mention a monthly fee for its original content and video.Is Apple challenging Netflix’s $10 billion per year?
Apple also has discussed the right to bundle some of the existing streaming services in its new Apple TV Channels product for a discount.
According to sources. This could give Apple TV Channels an advantage over the competing Amazon Channels by giving consumers the facility to sign up for multiple streaming services for a lower price.
The only pricing detail apple offered to announce was The Wall Street Journal as part of Apple News+ with price: $9.99 a month.
Nevertheless, it is unclear if the WSJ will be offering all of its content through the News+ service.It is also unclear how much digital content and services from companies they will be offering. They didn’t mention prices even for there new gaming service.
Event lack pieces of key information missing from the forum.The end result was an event that felt messy and a bit confused.The event felt messy and a bit disordered. Apple investors should hope the company’s long-term services strategy doesn’t suffer.
