WOW!! It’s official: Apple to buy Beats Electronics for $3 billion

Apple Inc. will officially pay $3 billion to buy Beats Electronics, the headphone and music-streaming service founded by West Coast rapper Dr. Dre and music executive Jimmy Iovine, Re/code reported. The price comes in $200 million lower than the number initially reported on May 8.
