The difference in usage patterns between Apple Music and Apple TV+ can be explained by the different nature of the two services. Streaming music services are typically more competitive, with a wider variety of options available. This means that customers are more likely to switch between different streaming music services. Streaming video services, on the other hand, are less competitive, and customers are more likely to subscribe to multiple services. This explains why Apple TV+ is used by a smaller percentage of Apple owners, but its usage is more consistent across age groups.

Overall, Apple Music and Apple TV+ are both popular Apple services that are used by a significant number of Apple owners. However, their usage clearly varies by age group, with Apple Music being more popular among younger customers and Apple TV+ being more popular among older customers.
