Apple Music is now available in four more countries, lifting the service to 172 countries and regions. The additions showed up Wednesday, September 30th, when Apple updated its media-services availability list. Aaron Perris on X was first to flag the change: Albania, Brunei, Burkina Faso, and Pakistan.
Subscribers in those markets can now stream the full Apple Music catalog, which requires a paid plan — $11.99 a month after a free month, or as part of an Apple One bundle where that bundle is offered. The timing lines up with a wider services push. Albania, Burkina Faso, and Pakistan were already on Apple’s recent list of places where iCloud+ includes Apple TV and Apple Arcade at no extra charge. Brunei is the exception: the Apple TV subscription service is still unavailable there, even as Apple Music arrives. The same day, Apple put a major Android update into beta. Apple Music 7.0 for Android adopts the Liquid Glass look, with a floating bottom navigation bar and a new mini-player. The expansion also follows Apple Pay’s rollout in India and sits against a softer stretch for Services growth. Hardware still drives most of Apple’s revenue, but adding countries is how the company keeps enlarging the pool of people who can pay for Music, TV, Arcade, and the bundles that sit on top of them.
