It was revealed officially by the representatives on Tuesday, as they also added that keynote will specifically include Apple’s new service called "iCloud." It was still left unexplained whether what exactly the iCloud service is referred to, but the rumors have been extremely explicit regarding the negotiation of Apple with all four major recording companies. Hence it is largely suspected that iCloud will be Apple’s cloud based storage service for songs, which will allow the users to keep their library updated on the Apple-run servers rather than their home PCs.
Steve Jobs took a medical leave in January this year due to undisclosed reasons, as the temporary control of the company was handed over to C.E.O. Tim Cook. But even after staying on leave, Jobs still was highly consulted in all major decisions of the company, and he also displayed the new iPad model at a news conference in March. Now Apple’s famous annual Worldwide Developers Conference, WWDC, will start this Monday in San Francisco. The news of Jobs to make a special appearance at the conference from his leave is a clear signal that he is hoping iCloud to be the next record breaking innovation of the company.
It was reported in detail by Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, according to anonymous sources it has been revealed that iCloud will be giving the users a one-click feature to scan all the home music data and then immediately have it duplicated in the "cloud" of Apple-run computers. This will be extensively convenient as the users won’t have to upload each song separately on the online storage locker. This is anticipated as the key feature of iCloud which gives it a huge leap ahead of its competitor services of Google and Amazon.com.
Further the official invitation of Apple also mentioned that the keynote speech will include Apple's new Mac software, Lion, along with the next versions of Apple's iPhone and iPad software. Against the tradition, this time it is being suspected that the conference will not be unraveling the next model of iPhone, rather analysts have anticipated that the new iPhone of this year will arrive in sometime this fall.
