Apple is reportedly in talks to sign Drake, David Guetta and Pharrell as guest DJs for the iTunes radio.

According to the New York Post, the addition of these musicians to the iTunes Radio team would ramp up the streaming service's building starpower, which currently includes popular BBC Radio 1 host Zane, however the rumors haven't been yet confirmed, the Verge reported.

It was also reported that Apple wants to offer users a three-month free trial period for the service (which will cost 10 dollars per month), and it wants labels to give it music rights for free during that period.
