Apple has introduced a new subscription tier for Apple Music dubbed the Voice Plan that lets users access the platform's catalog using Siri.
The Voice Plan will let users listen to songs, playlists, albums, and other content on Apple Music using just voice commands. It's also cheaper than the Apple Music individual plan, costing $4.99 a month.
Unlike the $9.99 Individual Plan, the Voice Plan only lets users access content via voice. It appears aimed at users who mostly listen to music via HomePod mini or AirPods
In addition to the Voice Plan, Apple has also debuted new curated playlists for various settings, including dinners, hikes, and relaxing before bed.
The Voice Plan will be available in 17 countries when it launches later in the fall.

What an odd segmentation of a service. I see this driving more people away from the Homepod, not towards it.
Not a good trend either.
I guess its a tacit admission that Siri sucks, having to subsidise customers to use it.
“Internet people critical of Apple strategy! Film at 11.”
This is actually laughable
