Apple might bundle its TV, music, and news services under one subscription in 2020

The rumour that Apple intended to combine its different subscription services under one plan might be happening as soon as next year. Bloomberg reports that a recent deal with publishers includes a provision that allows the News+ subscription to be part of the bundle. Apple is also reportedly in talks with labels to make a similar deal. 

The move is a logical one. But what isn't know is how much the bundle will cost. Right now, Apple News+ costs $12.99, Apple TV+ is $5.99, Apple Music goes for $9.99, and Apple Arcade costs $4.99, which rounds that out at around $34. Apple could price it at $30 or lower. But we'll only know for sure if or when Apple decides to push through with this plan. It is unclear if its partners will agree with the arrangement as well.

Amazon recently filed the trademark for the "Amazon Wallet" with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office. The filing was done on October 29, but it hasn't been officially formalized yet by the Canadian government. This isn't the first time we've heard of Amazon Wallet. It was first rolled out in the US in 2014 as an all-in-one product for loyalty and gift cards. But this initiative was shuttered after six months.

The filing suggests that Amazon Wallet can be used to store both credit and debit information and as a means to make payments. This feature wasn't available yet back in 2014. We don't know yet what Amazon really wants to do with the Amazon Wallet. But we should hear something soon.
