If you are curious to see what its alternative is Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), for Office Online and Google Docs, but you don't own one product of Apple, luck is now smiling on you. The company is now allowing anyone to create an account in a beta version of iWork for iCloud without requiring you to own any Apple device.
The website of Apple beta.icloud.com displays a message saying that anyone can sign up and use the Pages, Numbers, and Keynote from iCloud. You just need to go through a registration process to create a new Apple ID, and you're good to go. You'll also get 1GB of iCloud storage. (Wow!)
In the past, just having an Apple ID (as for iTunes) was not enough to access iCloud. You must first set up iCloud on an Apple device. If you try to access the regular Apple website (and not the beta) with the Apple ID you use for iTunes only, the site will ask you to have an Apple device and set up iCloud on it

It seems that Apple is becoming more and more lenient about the products of those used on non-Apple devices. Reports released recently reported the upcoming Android music subscription service for Android.
Does this move make sense? maintaining the requirement that parent software is linked through Apple hardware has a logic in terms of optimization but reduces the widespread use of iCloud on the Internet. Opening cloud software to other platforms helps bring more people into the Apple system, which can ultimately be beneficial to the company.
