World’s leading technology giant Apple has reached multi-billion dollar agreement deal with American media mogul Oprah Winfrey to create original programs for its streaming service.
On Friday, 15th of June, Apple spokesperson reveals that the technology company has signed an agreement with Oprah Winfrey’s OWN company to release programs, which will be released worldwide as part of a lineup of original content.
Apple has yet to launch its service, whose major competitors will include Amazon and Netflix.
Winfrey founded and heads the OWN channel as chair and CEO. She recently extended her contract with OWN through 2025.
An OWN spokeswoman said Winfrey has an exclusive on-camera deal with OWN but can appear elsewhere on a limited basis.
Winfrey’s content for Apple will be solely for the streaming service, the representative said.
