The confirmation of the merger is indicated after Apple acquired the streaming service company ‘lala’ for $80 million in December 2009. Apple will apparently announce the merger at Apple’s iPod special event which is holding this fall.
Apple may be preparing a massive move that will propel Safari from niche browser to market leader. The move to merge Safari and iTunes into one software solution appears long in the works, which may arrive this fall at Apple’s usual iPod special event.

Tying iTunes into Safari, it is argued, would likely bring a significant boost to the company’s share of the browser market as consumers turn to the integrated environment.
