Media and Entertainment Super Bundle Follow Up

Last week I talked about the coming of the super bundles. The overall arc of that piece was more about what super bundles are and why consumers will be drawn to them over traditional cable packages. Throughout the article, I mentioned some companies were positioned better than others, namely Amazon and Apple. In the recent days, Apple’s strategy here is becoming more clear.
