Of course, you can also search and stream through the millions of tracks available on iTunes.<\/p>\n<p>The new app also includes a \u201cFor You\u201d section that offers up recommendations for what to listen to. Apple notes that it isn\u2019t using an algorithm. Instead, real humans and music experts are making the suggestions.<\/p>\n<p>Apple\u2019s new radio station, called Beats1 is being helmed by popular DJ Zane Lowe, who\u2019s well known for pushing new music to the masses and interviewing great artists. He\u2019ll be joined by a couple other DJs in LA and NY\u00a0to keep things going all day and night.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Connect is a place where artists can push photos, videos, music and more to their followers. It features integration with Facebook, Twitter and each artist\u2019s official website. The entire thing looks pretty good, offering a scrolling view of updates from all your favorite musicians.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Music definitely faces some tough competition from entrenched rivals like Spotify and Google, but we\u2019re excited to try Cupertino\u2019s new service for ourselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[metaslider id=2073] Apple unveiled its new music streaming service on Monday at WWDC.\u00a0You can try it for yourself starting June 30 for $9.99 per month.
