Apple announced a major new foray into streaming music Monday, showing off a host of new software features for its iPhones, iPads and Mac computers.

The US$10-a-month music service is called Apple Music and combines on-demand listening, a 24/7 radio station hosted by live DJs and a forum for artists to give fans behind-the-scenes content from upcoming releases.

The service, which was announced during Apple's annual software conference Monday, will be launched later this month in more than 100 countries.

The official streaming music service said it also curated leading music experts hand-picked by Apple.
