Apple has announced that their music streaming service, Apple Music, will be made available to Android users this coming fall. During the Worldwide Developer's Conference last Monday, Apple's executives introduced its new app with Toronto rapper Drake to increase their share of the music downloads. The new service will have a monthly charge of $9.99 US.

Most of the stream-all-you-can services cost ten dollars per month and Apple is looking to take back its throne since it launched iTunes 12 years ago. This new music streaming service is only a stepping stone as the company looks forward to getting a piece of the Android pie as well. During the keynote, executives also reveal a new software called Move to iOS that will enable users to simply transfer their contacts, mail accounts, messages and other forms of media from an existing Android device to any iPhone or iPad running on their new iOS 9. Android users may think that the software updates on the new operating system may be outdated, but this transfer software may actually encourage long time users to switch with ease. The details on how this is done was not mentioned during the presentation, but it did specify that it will try to rebuild your your apps, presumably by looking for something similar in iTunes, when you switch platforms.

Storage capacity issues when you move from an Android to iOS platform might be a key factor in determining Apple's success on encroaching Android's territory along with timely and innovative updates. The new iOS 9 did not feature anything ground breaking as most, if not all, of the updates have been around with Android as far back as 2011. Still, with Apple leading the worldwide sales in the last quarter of 2014, they've proven that they can still compete and beat Android at their own game.
