11 million people are testing Apple Music

Apple Music 11 millionApple Music has 11 million registered subscriptions to test the streaming service according to the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, those from Cupertino today offering the first public data on their system.

Last weeks, the first information regarding the number of users of the service appeared Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), and then the company's partners claimed that Apple Music has 10 million registered users, but it seems that in reality the figure is 10% higher for a total of 11 million.

Eddy Cue is, of course, excited by the very large number of people who chose to test Apple Music for 3 months, and of the 11 million activations made, it seems that 2 million are for family subscriptions that have a price almost double that of the individual one.

Because we are talking about 11 million activations of trial subscriptions made in a single month, the Apple company must be congratulated for the achievement, but it does not reveal in one way or another the real success of Apple Music, this will become evident only from October.

One month after unveiling its new streaming music service, Apple has locked in 11 million trial members, company executives tell us. "We're thrilled with the numbers so far," says Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Internet software and services, adding that of that sum 2 million have opted for the more lucrative family plan at $14.99 a month for up to six people .

People are curious by nature and since Apple Music is offered for free, it was normal for a very large number of people to activate their subscriptions, but it remains to be seen how many of the existing millions of users will also pay for Apple Music in the fall.

To be honest, I think that in the end between 25% and 40% of those who test Apple Music want to pay for the service, and the figure can only be calculated in the fall because this figure of 11 million activations will increase in the following period.
