A Variety report says Apple may be pursuing a streaming service and original content. The report says the company has already met with Hollywood execs about creating "long-form content to stream." (Video via Apple)

The details are still vague and Variety reports the long-term goals differ depending on who you ask.
But Apple may really have no choice but to aim high, since competitor Amazon has already found success making original content. (Video via Amazon Studios)
And Netflix has revved up its efforts for original content, creating original shows and movies on a fairly regular basis. (Video via Netflix)
Like a Wal-Mart or Macy's, tech companies could easily use their distribution powers to promote their own products.
In which case, Apple might really be needing to play catch-up to the tech giants that are already subverting the entertainment industry.
