Mark Gurman has ideas for growing the Apple TV+ subscriber base

In his latest Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says if Apple wants Apple One and its services business to grow even further, the company needs to two things: expand the Apple One program and better integrate services. Here are some of his suggestions for, among other things, growing the Apple TV+ subscriber base:

° Include Apple TV+ for free with Apple Music, so you get both for $9.99 per month.

° Better integrate Apple TV+ with iTunes Movies. For instance, the company could throw in a few free rentals a month with a TV+ subscription.

° Require an Apple TV+ subscription to access podcasts about TV+ shows in the Podcasts app.
