US technology giant Apple is in talks to license music for broadcast on a custom online radio service modeled after Pandora, The Wall Street Journal reported September 6. The Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, said Apple's service would work on the company's hardware, including the iPhone, iPad and Mac computers, as well as potentially on PCs using Microsoft's Windows operating system.
But it would not work on smartphones and tablets that use Google's Android operating system, as the two technology giants are at loggerheads to dominate the lucrative mobile market.
