From CNET: More than 6.5 million people have signed up for Apple Music since the $10-a-month streaming music service launched at the end of June, CEO Tim Cook said Monday.
Another 8.5 million people are participating in the music service's 90-day free trial, he added.
"I'm finding personally that I'm discovering a whole lot of music that I wasn't listening to before," he said. "I think it's fabulous. And to have over 15 million on there, and 6.5 million in the paid category, I'm really happy about it, and I think the runway here is really good."
Cook made the remarks during a wide-ranging interview here at a Wall Street Journal technology conference. Along with comments about Apple's new services and products, Cook spoke passionately about the company's responsibility in promoting human rights, improving the environment and touting education. He added that he doesn't mind irritating people as long as Apple is upholding the legacy of company co-founder Steve Jobs, who wanted to change the world with tech.
