Apple held talks with China Mobile last year to roll out Apple TV+ in China, according to a report by The Information. Under the proposed deal, Apple would license its content to China Mobile, since Chinese law doesn't allow foreign companies to operate their streaming services in China. China Mobile would offer Apple TV+ for a monthly fee and feature Apple's content on Mobile HD, a set-top box included with China Mobile's broadband service. The companies would split revenue from Apple TV+ subscriptions, and Apple is likely to charge less for the streaming service in China than in the U.S. due to the weaker purchasing power of Chinese consumers.
What are the details of the proposed deal between Apple and China Mobile regarding the rollout of Apple TV+ in China?
