What's the difference between Apple Music, Apple Podcast and Apple TV?
When Apple announced MacOS Catalina (the latest version of its operating system), it shocked everyone by abandoning iTunes 18 years later and replacing it with three separate applications.
Apple introduced the iTunes application for the first time in 2001 to make it easy to find music, movies and TV, and included an e-store with the possibility of synchronizing files with other Apple devices, and Apple changed the concept of music buying in the world.
This step will split it into three applications: Apple Music, Apple Podcast, and Apple TV, so that separate applications will control your entertainment activities. Apple has made some details through Conference for WWDC developers this year.
Although the emergence of 3 new applications seems a bit complicated, Apple has indicated that it is abandoning iTunes to keep applications running and help the user focus on what he wants.
Note: This step will not in any way affect the synchronization of all music, video, and podcast files via iCloud to become available on all your devices.

Apple has a vision of how to use the applications of Apple Music, Apple Podcast, Apple TV, the most prominent differences between them:
Apple Music application:
The new Apple Music app will be the source of listening to songs, watching music videos, and the app will work on all Apple devices so you can listen to music from any of them.
You can use the Apple Music app without being subscribed to the service, but when you pay $ 10 a month you will have many features. The paid service offers 50 million songs, playlists, and music videos. The app also offers customized recommendations for you, and a special library for music storage.
Users will have access to their entire library, whether they download, buy, or burn songs.
Apple Music – which has been around since 2015 – will obviously be present in the new application. This will be the place where the iTunes music library is housed, but you will not use the app to synchronize it with your new devices, But will use the application (Finder) for it.
If you subscribe to iTunes Match – a service that allows you to access all your music on all your devices, even songs you've imported from other sources such as CDs – you'll also keep these features, as the new music app has Match.
With the new update, you'll also be able to access your Apple Music app, music on your Apple TV, and follow up with lyrics on your screen.
Previously, iTunes was paying for albums and singles. Now that Apple's music has a store, in addition to buying albums or individual songs, you can also subscribe monthly to millions of songs and Match.
You can try Apple Music for three months before making a decision, and then you will have 3 options: $ 5 per month, personal subscription for $ 10 per month, family membership for $ 15 per month provided that the family does not exceed 6 people.
Apple Podcast application:
As the name implies, Apple Podcast is dedicated to podcast format, not music tracks at all, and the app provides more than 700,000 recorded broadcasts from TV, radio, and podcasts that you can watch, listen to and subscribe to.
Podcasts are usually broadcasted in episodes, and if you are subscribed to the app you will receive an automatic notification of new episodes as they become available. You can also add podcasts to your library and listen to them offline for free.
Now you can listen to podcast files on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, and Apple TV devices. You can also start listening to a device and then complete it with another device.
Once you get the Mac OS Catalina version this fall, you can listen to the podcast files on your Mac from a separate application, and even then you have to listen through the iTunes application, which will remain available until the update arrives .
Apple TV application:
Once Mac OS Catalina is released into Mac, iTunes movies and TV programs will automatically be transferred to the Apple TV application – currently available on iPhones, iPads and Apple TV devices.
AppleTV broadcasts your favorite TV shows and movies from streaming services such as Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, and you can also buy movies and offers and rent them here.
Apple will also add the option to subscribe to its new Apple TV Plus service, through which Apple works with Hollywood stars to create original content to compete with the Netflix platform, but so far has not determined how much it will cost, Specified, but only announced that it will be during the fall.
Netflix will also not be part of the new Apple TV Plus service, according to Reed Hastings, CEO of Netflix.
