    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The apps were originally launched in preview last year, but Apple has now removed the preview tag after working with Microsoft to launch the apps.

    The trio of apps, in combination with an overhauled iCloud for Windows app, are designed to move Windows users away from the reliance of iTunes, according to MacRumors.

    The Apple Music app provides access to the iTunes library, alongside song and album purchases.

    Apple TV also lets Windows users watch movies and TV shows from their iTunes library, along with subscription streaming content.

    Apple Devices lets PC owners backup or restore iPhones and iPads, as well as sync content to those devices.

    Microsoft has been working with Apple on the apps, and even welcomed their launch this week.
