Beats 1

Beats 1 was the flagship internet music station through Beats Music. It was rebranded to Apple Music 1 as Beats Electronics had been acquired by Apple Inc.

History
Beats 1 originally began airing on June 30, 2015 as the flagship curated music channel on the Beats Music streaming service from Beats Electronics, which had been acquired by Apple in 2014. Beats Music became Apple Music. Beats 1 replaced Apple's existing iTunes Radio station and was later rebranded as Apple Music 1, which was announced along with Apple Music Hits and Apple Music Country on August 18, 2020. The stations are streamed live around the world 24 hours a day. The radio stations are ad-supported and free to all users with an Apple ID.

Support
Listening to Beats 1 was only supported through iTunes or the Apple Music app. However, developer Benjamin Rumble found that the streams were initially unecrypted and posted links for Android users. However, Apple began taking down unencrypted streams and left only encrypted streams by the next day on July 1, 2015.
