My money is on Apple's music streaming service, but it seems awfully quick since the LaLa acquisition.

i think its probably going to be email.

seriously, though, streaming is probably most likely, but i'm going to go with subscription service.

in Dalton Caldwell's startup school talk, he said he was familiar with some of the people from the LaLa acquisition. he said he was pretty sure they weren't working on anything similar to what they had been doing in their old company. if true, then Apple isn't working on a streaming service after all.

Perhaps they're moving away from "Tunes"?

It was a music player. Now it's a music, video, book, and app store and media center, as well as a connection hub for all of your accessory devices. I have a feeling that whatever they announce tomorrow will only be a proliferation of this trend.

"iTunes" has got a ton of brand awareness, but we've seen them appropriately drop "Computer" from their company name and "Phone" from iOS. Still, probably a long shot.
