There's a new music streaming service on the way, from the musical minds behind Beats By Dr. Dre headphones.

With the decline of music sales and the growing trend towards music streaming. Beats are entering the market with what they think will be the next big service.

When opening the app the first time, Beats Music asked for three favourite genres – choices include Pop, Rock, Country, Hip-hop, Blues – and three artists that you like or love – Rolling Stones, Alan Jackson, fun, for example – to provide some input for its music presentation algorithm. Beats are keen to stress that all their algorithm choices are chosen by real people, as they believe the computer generated choices out there at the moment are not a true reflection on music taste / choice.

As ever, Sonos will be integrating this service from day 1 in the USA. There is no word yet whether the Beats service will launch in the UK or on what date. We will keep you updated as soon as news breaks.

Could this be a Spotify killer, or will iTunes rule all if they launch their music service... We have no idea but we look forward to playing all on our Sonos system.
