Beats 1 Radio is the most listened to radio station in the world, according to information provided even by those from Apple, who created the entire platform. The information was provided in an interview for a famous British newspaper, but of course no figures were provided regarding the audience that Beats 1 Radio currently has.
Beats 1 Radio was launched in mid-2015 by the Apple company as a radio station that broadcasts 24 hours a day worldwide, but only on the Internet. Although we are talking about a radio station available exclusively online, it can be listened to by any iOS or Android users, and this has brought it a huge audience that Apple boasts about.
The announcement was made after Apple announced that Drake's new album, More Life, recorded more than 300 million listens on Apple Music in its first week of availability. The album was announced during a show that Drake has on Beats 1 Radio, and it had an audience that those at Apple have only seen on TV shows.
Even without the figures from Apple, we are probably talking about more than 10 million people who listen simultaneously to what Beats 1 Radio transmits. That Beats 1 Radio is popular doesn't really have to prove to Apple, the success of artists with Apple Music fully proving the power of promotion that the radio station from Cupertino has.
"It's the biggest radio station in the world. There's no way you're going to find another station that has as many concurrent listeners and audience-wise as Beats 1, period,"
