Top-Tier SiriusXM Subs Offered a Year of Free Apple Music

Subscribers to SiriusXM’s $35-monthly Platinum VIP plan can activate 12 months of Apple Music for free under a cross-service promotion, said Sirius Thursday. Apple Music’s catalog has over 90 million songs and 30,000 playlists, available online or off, it said. Under the promo, Platinum VIP subscribers can access spatial audio tracks, time-synced lyrics and artist-hosted shows on the Apple Music 1, Apple Music Country and Apple Music Hits global livestreams, it said. Platinum VIP includes access to SiriusXM in two vehicles and two SXM App logins. Early next year, SiriusXM plans to launch a separate special offer for up to six months of Apple Music free with the purchase of a qualifying SiriusXM subscription plan.
