Remember all those rumours about Apple launching a superior streaming service in some imaginary future? Well, according to a Wall Street Journal report on Saturday, a service is indeed happening, but it may not be all that superior. It’s an unusual move, considering that all of the major cable television and streaming networks, including HBO and Hulu, have never considered censored graphic and controversial content. The WSJ noted that some of Apple’s team itself have dubbed its service “expensive NBC,” due to the company’s conservative ethos but prestige backing. Despite its mandate, Apple has secured major talent, including projects from Steven Spielberg, Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston among others.
