Apple's Senior Vice President of Services Eddy Cue is working on a restructuring of services management with the goal of focusing more on streaming and advertising, or so a new report claims.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cue sees streaming and advertising as areas where revenue growth is possible and has already begun updating the responsibilities of key executives in the services area, reported<\/a> Business Insider. Peter Stern, Apple's vice president of services, will no longer be in charge of advertising, giving him more time to focus on video, news, books, iCloud, Fitness+ and Apple One. Todd Teresi, a vice president of advertising at Apple, will instead take on more responsibility and has been reporting directly to Cue since the beginning of the year. One of the sources who spoke to Business Insider said Apple's advertising business is now "big enough to live on its own." Apple recently acquired the rights to Friday Night Baseball after reaching an agreement with Major League Baseball, with more sports deals to come. Rumor has it Apple is working to secure the rights to the NFL's Sunday Ticket package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple Services: Apple Pay to be expanded as well<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

NBA games are also expected to be shown on Apple TV+ at some point. Sports content would attract new viewers to Apple TV+, which Apple has been building since its launch in 2019. Compared to other streaming services, Apple still has a limited amount of original content and cannot reach the same subscriber numbers as Hulu, Netflix and Disney+. Revenue from services has grown steadily in recent years. The Services category now includes Apple TV+, iCloud, Apple Fitness+, Apple News+, Apple Music, the App Store, Apple Care+, Apple Arcade, Apple Pay and more. In the second quarter of 2022, Apple Services earned $19.8 billion, up from $17 billion in the same quarter last year. In addition to focusing on streaming and advertising, Apple is also planning to launch new services. There are rumors of a hardware subscription service. Apple Pay is also set to be expanded to include the "buy now, pay later" feature. (Photo by DenPhoto \/ Bigstockphoto)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
