Apple Music fans in the United States can now listen to CBS Sports Radio as part of their subscription package, bringing the total number of news and sports radio channels on the service to nine.

“CBS Sports Radio delivers this to fans 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so it’s an ideal next step to launch a channel on Apple Music, one of the most popular streaming services today, as yet another way we continue to meet the evolving desires of this passionate audience anywhere and everywhere,” said Chris Oliviero, Executive Vice President of Programming for CBS Radio.

The station includes sport news and commentary, along with interviews from various athletes, coaches and other figures.

Other channels available in the U.S. to Apple Music subscribers include BBC World Service, Bloomberg Radio, CBS Radio News, ESPN Deportes, ESPN News and Sports,
NBC Sports Radio, NPR News and Culture, and PRI News and Insights. Apple’s Beats 1 station is also available to all users, paying and otherwise.

Apple Music has steadily been adding more content ever since it was launched, around 18 months ago. Most notably it has been supplementing its new radio channels with Apple-produced video content — which are likely to ramp up during the course of 2017.
