Tech giant Apple is expected to announce the end of its music platform iTunes at its developer conference beginning tomorrow.
The development has been rumoured for years as subscription-style streaming services like Spotify, Amazon Music and Apple’s own Apple Music have gone from strength to strength with music downloading. Apple’s iTunes was introduced in 2001 in an effort to tackle the music industry’s piracy issue.

In its 18 years, iTunes had become a convenient source for all things music, movies and TV.
With Apple’s decision to drop their music streaming platform, they will divide those services into three new apps including Music, TV and Podcasts.
Apple has already decentralized media on iPads and iPhones which offer these separate apps, next they will migrate Macs and Macbooks.
As well as the decision to drop iTunes, Apple are also expected to announce an Apple Watch App Store as well as updates to Mac Pro.
