Apple is using "Myriad Pro Set" as a web font. I'm assuming that somehow we can now purchase a license to use Myriad Pro as a web font.
Adobe says the font is available for web use. But, the only info they provide is a link to Typekit (owned by Adobe), which does offer "Myriad Pro" but Typekit's Myriad Pro is a serif font -- not the sans-serif that Apple has popularized.
Does anyone know anything about this?

It supports Adobe CE and Adobe Western 2 character sets. Myriad Web comprises only five fonts: Myriad Web Pro Bold, Myriad Web Pro Regular, Myriad Web Pro Condensed Italic, Myriad Web Pro Condensed, Myriad Web Pro Italic.
There are a few Canva fonts that are similar to Myriad Pro. Some of these fonts include PT Sans, Helvetica, and Arial. While they may not be exact matches, they are close enough that you can get the same general look and feel with your text.
Myriad is an official standard font of the University of Virginia and Loyola University Chicago as well as one of the two official standard fonts of Cambridge University and the primary typeface for University of Nevada, Reno and the University of Ottawa (Wikipedia). I've used it in many books in various ways.

For a subscription fee at Adobe Fonts, the web font is available.
As for the fonts being different (serif vs. sans-serif), here is a side-by-side comparison of the font off apple.com (left) and the font off the Adobe page you linked to (right):
As you can see, there is no difference between the two, at least with this "G" character, and I couldn't find any other noticeable differences.
