GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Launching a physical venue tied directly to its streaming service could let Apple differentiate Apple Music from Spotify by offering exclusive live content and production perks that competitors' subscribers can't get. Featuring artists like Elton John and Charli xcx, who already have ties to Apple Music's radio programming, suggests Apple may be leaning on existing relationships to build out this new venture quickly.
- Elton John will be the first performer at Apple Music Hall next week.
- The London venue holds up to 600 people and streams shows globally via Apple Music.
- Tickets for the first two shows go on sale September 28, with others to follow.
