Apple to consolidate TV, Music and News subscriptions into a single bundle

Apple is now going to offer a subscription bundle that will include Apple TV , Music and News , as it is consolidating these various subscription-based services into one. First reported by The Information, the news was confirmed by two people familiar with the company’s plans. The move sounds much like the Amazon’s Prime service, which also offers video, music, and news. Based on what the price of these subscriptions are going to be, the tech giant will be able to get some boost in its subscription-based revenues.
