Introducing jimmy iovine
"Today we're announcing Apple Music, the next chapter in music. It will change the way you experience music forever."
Jimmy Iovine: "I'm here because in 2003 the record industry was a ball of confusion. We had napster, lime wire, bit torrent, this giant invader from the north, technology. I'm looking at my guys saying, 'what do we do with this?'" So I go up to Apple and see Steve Jobs and Eddy Cue and they show me iTunes. and I'm like, wow, the ads are real! These guys really do think different!"
So now, 2015, the music industry is a fragmented mess. If you want to stream music, you can go over here. You want to see video, check some of these places out. Want to follow an artist, go here?

"All the ways you love music, all in one place. and that place is in almost a billion hands around the world already."
