Elon Musk’s X is set to launch an app “identical” to YouTube’s TV offering for smart televisions as early as next week, according to a report.
Musk’s goal is to get users to watch “long videos on a bigger screen” — part of the billionaire’s larger initiative to make X the “everything app,” according to Fortune, which reported the news citing anonymous sources.
“He is set on competing with YouTube,” the source told Fortune, adding that X’s forthcoming video app will first be available exclusively for Amazon and Samsung smart TVs.
