Apple may be thinking of closing itunes

iTunes is one of the best known programs that Apple has created. It has managed to have quite a few users on both Cupertino brand devices and Windows computers. But, it seems that the end of this program would be closer than many may think. Since the brand is preparing various changes in its music service. It seems that the advance of Apple Music is partly to blame.

Apple may be thinking of closing iTunes

Streaming has become the main way to consume music today. Discs or songs are no longer purchased in digital format. So the main objective / function of iTunes seems to no longer make sense. For this reason, it seems that the company plans to abandon this service.

iTunes gives way to Apple Music

So it seems that Apple wants to bet heavily on the latest music service they have created, which is more in line with what the current music market is asking for. Although the closure of iTunes sounds somewhat dramatic, for users who have bought records or songs, nothing will happen. The company's plans are to stop updating the library with new disks. Step by step, users are expected to switch to Apple Music.

This last service is working very well for the American company. In the United States it is already almost at the same level as Spotify. In fact, it is expected that it will soon outperform the Swedish streaming service.

This success may have been one of the reasons for leaving iTunes. At the moment this could not be confirmed. So we will have to wait for Apple to say something more about it soon.
