Apple’s 2014 lineup better than last 25 years’: Eddy Cue

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 29 Mei 2014 | 21.43

NEW DELHI: With Apple set to host its Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) on June 2, vice president Eddy Cue has said that the company's portfolio for 2014 is the best he has seen in the past 25 years.

Speaking at the Code Conference technology gathering in California, Cue said that Steve Jobs "would be extremely proud of the products we are building."

According to a CNET report, Cue also said that the reason behind Apple's success is that it does not focus on building a hundred things, but instead emphasizes on doing "a few great things."

WWDC has been largely a software-focussed event since last few years, while hardware products like iPhones, iPads and Macs get special events at various points during the year. At this year's WWDC, Apple is expected to unveil a new software platform for home automation and a major update to its desktop operating system. Along with these, the company will also take covers off the next version of its mobile software iOS at the event.

Among the new iOS features is expected to be Healthbook, a fitness-centric app. Apart from that, iOS 8 is also rumoured to feature the base for an upcoming smart home platform and smartwatch. iTunes Radio is set to become a standalone app in this version iOS; it is currently a part of the Music app.

Apple today announced the acquisition of Beats Music, which is likely to become a part of the subscription-based iTunes Radio music streaming service.

Talking about the Beats acquisition, Cue reportedly said, "We have a lot of customers, and we know what they listen to. We have a lot of customers who have an easy way to pay. We have a great relationship with artists... We think all of those things, when you put them all together, it's (Beats) on steroids. It's going to bring great opportunities for artists and great music for customers."

Another product that Apple has long rumoured to be working on is a smartTV. This product is expected to be based on Apple TV, the company's content streaming box.

"TV is a hard problem to solve," Cue said, according to the CNET report. "One of the problems you have with a TV is you have a disparate system with a bunch of providers. There are no standards. There are a lot of rights issues. Apple TV is going to continue to evolve."
