Audio products company’s “Beats Electronics” success story – phenomena, which recently made technology news headlines.Company build upon the reputations of the Interscope- Geffen-A&M Records chair Jimmy Iovine and rapper, hip-hop producer Andre “Dr. Dre” Young, entered the music industry at a time when technology , music and fashion were truly beginning to intertwine.

Premium Headphones and Wearables Market

There has been many rumors, whether Apple will launch “iWatch” wearable or not, but as we see now, most influential technology company took different direction. Reasons are obvious. Music has always been main Apple’s interest and “iTunes Radio” was (and still is) a total disaster. Spotify and Pandora secured theirs strong positions in the music streaming industry, therefore Apple needed new solution. Beats acquisition seems like a very logical step looking to the future. Beats online music streaming service alone, in the current market situation can not  compete with Spotify and Pandora equally, but now things will change and Beats music streaming service can gain up to xx million subscribers. Smart watches, glasses, wristbands and other wearables conquering market very slowly and that, I believe, was the main reason why Apple chose Beats. Other major factor influenced Apple’s decision to acquire Beats Electronics was the high level of Beats brand recognition and acceptance by consumers. Beats music devices, especially headphones line “Beats by Dr.Dre” , became fashion, style and “coolness” symbol among young consumers. According to NPD Group research, premium headphones market continued to grow throughout 2013, surpassing $1 billion- an increase of 21 percent from 2012. Following this trend we can expect even bigger growth this year.
