Apple announced in a press release that Apple Music has reached a new milestone. The company says that Apple Music now offers an extensive library of over 100 million songs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's a significant milestone that deserves to be celebrated. It's interesting how Apple highlights it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 1960s, only 5,000 new albums were released each year. Today, any artist anywhere in the world, in 167 countries and territories, can write and record a song on Apple Music and release it worldwide. Every day, over 20,000 singers and songwriters deliver new songs to Apple Music - songs that make our catalog even better than it was the day before. One hundred million songs is proof of a more democratic space, where anyone, even a new artist making music from their bedroom, can have the next big hit.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Apple Music leads in human curation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Apple previously said that Apple Music offers a library of 75 million songs. When it launched in 2015, it offered a catalog of 30 million songs. Spotify claims to have over 80 million songs in its library. Apple also emphasizes that despite this huge amount of songs, Apple Music continues to lead the way in human curation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Apple Music, human curation has always been at the heart of what we do, both in visible ways, like our editorial playlists, and invisible ways, like the human touch that drives our recommendation algorithms. Today, more than ever, we know that investing in human curation is key to ensuring we bring the best artists and listeners together.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
