Apple’s “Show Time” event is not a hidden game as Apple already show us a glimpse of the event in its theme invitation. Apple is preparing for the launch of their own streaming service as like Netflix or Prime Video. Apple is no new player to coming late to the game and succeed it as for example Apple Music which comes very late after Spotify and other online music streaming service but becomes top user base in the US. So it is expected that Apple may nail this competition also as according to rumor Apple has already partnered with biggest production companies and also specific artists to play a major role in Apple streaming service.
So this event is all about Apple streaming service as Apple has made earlier rollout for their product which includes AirPods (2nd gen), iPad Air, iPad mini and iMac’s updates. But there is still room for Apple other product which not release yet. So let’s see which products and services Apple going to roll out in the event.
Apple Video Service
Apple Video is the main focus of the event as Apple has invested around $1 Billion to make this service happen. Apple has invested this money in joining other media streaming service and also joining hands to partners to bring its content natively to Apple Video.
Apple earlier approach to bring original content may be forgotten by the users as shows like Carpool Karaoke by James Corden’s or Planets of the Apps but these show won’t able to make a dent to the mainstream user. The user can see these shows free if they have Apple Music subscription.
Apple may bring some new content genres like Drama, Comedy or other to attract more user with this new service.
Apple Video service may include inside the Video app on iOS and TV devices and may inside iTunes on Mac. Apple may focus to bring this service more user accessible by making their apps for Windows and Android ecosystem just like Apple Music App. Apple may bring their app for other set-top boxes like Amazon Fire TV, Roku and various other.
Pricing of this service will be the same as competition like Prime Video or Netflix at around $10.99 to $12.99.
Apple News Subscription
Apple will bring subscriptions in their news apps so bigger publishing media like Wall Street Journal or various other can publish their best content to Apple news and earn from a subscriber. Apple may include magazines subscription also so magazines publishing companies can easily use Apple service for selling their magazine.
Other small hardware
It is expected that Apple may bring a new iteration of its iPod Touch. Which feature a new processor, new display, new design, and a headphone jack. Apple brings this device because kids love this device as it is small and also cheaper as compared to Apple expensive iPhones.
Apple may also bring AirPower as recent leaks suggest that Apple has already made arrangement in their website to show AirPower so AirPower may finally show its usability. It’s about 1 and half year Apple gives us the glimpse of AirPower but they won’t able to make it to the mainstream as they also have to remove its picture from their website.
So these are services and products we are expecting from Apple to bring in the event. So let see how these services will make its introduction to the mainstream audience or not?
