Hypebot Readers Split On Apple Music, Beats 1

Late last week, we asked our savvy Hypebot readers to vote and share what they thought of the new Apple Music service and Beats 1 online radio.  The results were mixed, though more favorable for Apple Music than Beats 1.  

Just under half of Hypebot readers said the liked Apple Music enough to keep paying $9.99 per month when their free trial ran out.  Another 1/3rd said "not bad," but they were not going to be switching after the free trial.

The results were more mixed for Beats 1. Just 37% loved it and would become regular listeners. 63% answered either "its not for me" or that the broadcast would "never find a significant audience."
