I don't quite understand why they put so much emphasis on 24/7 radio. First, I knew few (younger) people who listen to radio. Second, it's technically not that impressive.
But most importantly: music is very divisive and tastes differ greatly. Apple has usually done a great job to keep their image as neutral as possible. There's a reason why the types of artists they generally associate with are rather inoffensive (Coldplay, The Beatles) or at worst found annoying (U2, or rather Bono).
So who gets excited about such a radio station?
(I just saw Drake get on stage, which actually illustrates this. He's neutral enough to not offend, but because it's music, I imagine a collective groan from pretty much all of my friends.)
To be clear, it's kind of a cute idea, but why emphasize it so much?
