Apple's iRadio Streaming Service One Step Closer to Launch



In the period prior to Apple's massive Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), the business has apparently achieved an integral accreditation package for its rumoured Web radio solution, the much talked about iRadio.
CNET reports that Apple has completed negotiations with Warner Music Group and their publishing counterparts, Warner/Chappell Music. The news headlines comes a month after the organisation achieved yet another deal with Universal Music. Discussions are still underway with Sony, in line with the report.

iRadio is suggested to be an Internet radio system similar to Pandora radio, with a totally free service funded by ads and a paid offering without advertising. Apple has been developing the concept since last summer, but has had issues in negotiations with record labels and other publishers due to licensing fees.
iRadio is expected to be unveiled on the 10th of June at the WWDC in San Francisco.
