Apple reimbursed Samsung 800 billion won ($683 million) to cover the cost of OLED panels after Apple missed a sales target both companies had agreed upon.
Apple originally said it would buy a certain number of the display panels from the South Korean company, but disappointing iPhone sales meant it was unable to live up to the agreement. The payment was made in the second quarter of this year.
We have millions and millions of songs in Apple Music's database. It will be a shame if the only means of browsing and discovering these songs is limited by Apple resources and imagination.
