Apple Video Launch
The video streaming service is expected to consist of two different parts. One would be Apple’s own service, and the other reportedly lets you sign up for other services inside the TV app, similar to Amazon Prime Video Channels.
So far Starz, CBS and Showtime, and Viacom are expected to offer their services in the app. It’s likely that Apple will announce the service during the March 25 event which will also see the launch of an Apple News subscription service.
