itunes store for android


According to a report from Billboard: Apple is apparently considering launching an iTunes store for Android to combat declining music sales, and The same report also says that Apple executives are in talks with record label executives about launching an on-demand music streaming service.
Launching an on-demand service could make iTunes much more similar to platforms like Spotify. Currently the iTunes Store is available on OS X and iOS, as well as Microsoft’s Windows. In fact, Steve Jobs was asked about bringing iTunes to Android back in 2011. Hit the break to see what he had to say:
“We thought about whether we should do a music client for Android. We put iTunes on Windows in order to sell more iPods. But I don’t see an advantage of putting our own music app on Android, except to make Android users happy. And I don’t want to make Android users happy.”
Obviously things have changed a lot since 2011, and Tim Cook has even said that he has nothing against bringing iTunes to Android, if it made sense.what do you think?
