Put Your Hands on 6-Month Apple Music Trial
So, that’s the quick way to get the cool six-month Apple Music subscription. From what I can tell it’s a good way to attract music lovers. On the competition front, Apple’s music streaming service is ahead in the US by a good margin as far as paid subscribers are concerned. However, it’s trailing far behind the global market leader Spotify that has amassed over 113 million paid subscribers (248 million active users) as against Apple Music’s around 65 million paid subscribers.
