Twenty-one years on from the invention of iTunes and the debut of the original iPod, we’ve gone from 1,000 songs in your pocket to 100,000x that on Apple Music. It’s phenomenal growth by any metric. The entire history, present, and future of music is at your fingertips or voice command.
But, whats in a number? Apple Music’s own global head of editorial Rachel Newman discusses what 100 million songs actually means in today’s newsroom post HERE.
Additionally, each of these 100 million songs has a unique story waiting to be told. Apple Music Today is a new audio series that will spotlight a different song every single day, seven days a week. The daily song selection may be new or old, a well-known essential or a fan-favorite deep cut. What they will all have in common is a compelling story and a particular and meaningful relevance to the day. The series kicks off today with the incredible story behind Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U”.
