Considering that we found out what changes Apple made on the retail side, now all attention is directed towards WWDC and iCloud. The publication The Economist Times claims that Apple's new online audio streaming system will be launched in June after the official announcement at WWDC. Apple has already concluded agreements with 3 of the 4 major US record companies and now all that remains is to initial the agreements with the publishers who hold a different set of rights regarding digital audio materials.
The Cupertino, California-based gadget-maker is expected to launch a new Web-hosted music service next month, according to multiple reports, after negotiating deals with at least three of the four major record labels.
Many people are waiting for iCloud and many people want Apple's service to be above those of Google and Amazon. No one knows how the new service will be configured or what it will require to function, but it seems quite clear that we will be able to use it from June.
