Looks like Apple has decided to shut down Beats Music service on November 30th following the launch of Apple Music on Android. According to the FAQ section on Beats Music website, all subscriptions will be cancelled on that date and subscribers are asked to move their picks and preferences over to Apple Music before then.
In fact, on Beats Music website FAQ, it looks like they are actively encouraging its users to subscribe to Apple Music instead. On top of that, apparently its curators will be moved to Apple Music to continue curating as the website mentioned, “All the pros that curated music for you are still crafting more amazing experiences. Plus, on Apple Music, you’ll get even better recommendations based on music you already listen to and love, 24/7 global radio with Beats 1, exciting material from your favorite artist, and more.”
We are assuming that since Apple Music has been launched on both iOS and Android platform, there isn’t any reason for Apple to keep Beats Music alive anymore since they wouldn’t want a conflict of interest after all.
