Alongside these new TWS earbuds, the company is expected to also announce a brand new tier to its music streaming service, dubbed the Apple Music HiFi. This version offers users high fidelity music. The rumor arrives after reports arrived earlier this week that it would be launching a high qualiy streaming service in the “coming weeks.”
The report adds that the new tier on the music streaming service that will cost 9.99 US Dollars. This pricing is the same as the individual package that the company offers at the moment. So, it is unclear how this new tier would fit in with its current schemes. Although, codes within the first beta of the upcoming iOS 14.6 update has suggested that the nwe HiFI streaming service will be limited to only compatible hardware. So stay tuned for more updates.
