The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times reported that Apple was studying the launch of a streaming music service which could be pre-installed on its popular iphone and ipad devices. Analyst Nat Schindler at Bank of America Merrill Lynch said Apple’s move could shake up the sector. “Apple is currently the largest music retailer in the world and the move is likely being made to unseat rapidly growing streaming competitors like Pandora and Spotify,” he said in a note to clients, but adding that the technology giant appears to be “going after Spotify and not Pandora.”
