Beats Responds to Music Service Launch Issues, Extends Free Trial Period

Beats music, which launched their subscription service yesterday, faced many launch-day issues forcing users not being able to log in to the service.

Beats Music is a new kind of streaming service that combines the best music experts and technology to always deliver you the right music at the right time. All you have to do is hit play. Access over 20 million songs, from every genre. Listen instantly or save to your device to listen to offline.

Today, CEO Ian Rogers emailed all registered users and provided them with an update on the stability issues many have experienced due to high traffic.

Huge thanks to everyone for making our launch day yesterday so successful. We've been blown away by the love that made us the #1 Music App in the iTunes Store.

Due to the extremely high volume of interest in our service some users are experiencing issues. Most people are unaffected but our priority is to give everyone a great experience. We prepared for issues like these, have a plan, and are going to hold off on letting more people in while we put this plan in action.

For those of you that claimed your name in the lead up to launch, we still have your username reserved and we'll be in touch with your invite. We appreciate your support.


Everyone who registers this week will get an additional seven days added to their trial.

We're staying focused on bringing you the best music experience from the people who know what song comes next. Stay tuned, and thanks for being excited about Beats Music.

Ian Rogers
CEO
