New Delhi: The tech-giant Apple has announced, it will offer iTunes Movie and TV Show services, along with Airplay 2 technology, on Samsung’s smart TVs.

The move comes at a time when Apple is seeking new ways to increase its revenue. If Apple has to raise its revenues from content services, it can do so only by reaching out to more users.

According to Samsung, its smart TVs will get the iTunes Movie and TV Shows app, allowing customers in 190 countries to stream content directly from the TV. They will also be able to rent and buy content.

Airplay is a proprietary technology used by Apple in its products and functions the same way as Bluetooth, but is usually faster.
