Buy a new iPhone and you will get bombarded with ads from Apple. They want you to try “FREE MUSIC” and as we all know nothing is free. Contact Apple and the friendly supporter will tell you it is not spam, Apple can send you offers. Meaning that buying a new phone from Apple they get a free advertising place for their products and you cannot make Apple stop doing that. Do not like the bloat on the phone either, some of it can be deleted but some seems to be impossible to get rid of. Conclusion: Apple IOS is no better than Google Android. Only more expensive for less memory, slower CPU only nice design as positive but newer Android phones get better also when up in same price level.

Horrible to use, very slow and nothing ever simple with apple, going back to Spotify.

Fungerer elendigt med Sonos. Hakker konstant og bare generelt svært ved at få forbindelse, selvom wifi intet fejler

Lost the music I downloaded, will never use again. App deleted.

Miglior servizio di streaming musicale con tantissime funzioni utili, ormai è un paio di anni che utilizzo questo servizio e mi trovo benissimo, unica pecca dovrebbero "copiare" da Spotify il Connect che permette di condividere la musica su qualsiasi dispositivo con quell'account e non solo i dispositivi AirPlay.

I ditched Apple Music a few years ago. It worked fine for two years, then suddenly it stripped all the information from over 2,000 of my tracks. Nothing but "untitled", unknown album, unknown, unknown, unknown. Six hours over two days with Apple tech led to nothing. I discovered I knew more about the system than he did. So, in frustration I cancelled the subscription and then suddenly all the track information returned! Come to find out, if Apple Music doesn't recognize your tracks, it does that. I was a sound artist and I collected hundreds of public domain material and recordings from the beginning of the 20th century. Well, of course Apple Music didn't know about anything like that, and so it didn't recognize it. But rather than leave what it didn't know alone, it just made them unusable. Really? Is that what I paid Apple for? Now that all their consumer based machines are no long user upgradeable, nor upgradeable beyond purchase by Apple, I am not buying any more Apple anything. I'm no groupie, but I did make the mistake of becoming one of their apologists. But no more. Apple is just a multinational corporation and cares about what other multinational corporations do. Being the biggest, dominate, and wealthiest in their industry and others. I've been using Apple products since 1988. I loved Apple in ways I cannot express, until things started changing roughly ten or so years ago. Now, the greed is so bad, and they're pushing and forcing users into becoming walking ATMs, that I hate Apple. I shouldn't have to subscribe to this, or pay for iCloud that, just to get the systems to function properly. You can't off load your books library to an external drive since before Catalina, you have to subscribe to Apple Music for your HomePod to play your own library as it won't pull it from your desktop via Wi-Fi, and they told nobody this when they first marketed the thing until there was enough of a howl, that it now appears in small print in their ads. And Siri? Alexa blows Siri back into the previous century. I once thought Siri was all that until I experienced a friend's Alexa on just his phone. Oh, my stars! I couldn't believe the difference. Siri is as dumb as a box of rocks, that all she can do is tell me the time, the weather, and be a timer for when I am baking a cake. That's it. She can't even hold a signal to drive music from Airplay from my desktop through Wi-Fi long enough to be useful. She drops signals like rain. If you ask Siri a question that she need only read from the web, she'll tell you to log in to your phone. Really? For that, I would have done that in the first place. So, the HomePod with Siri is nothing. Just a great big nothing. All of these things are artificial limitations put into place to force us into continual revenue streams because it isn't enough that their machines cost a fortune. And who cares if they come in every color of the rainbow? Really? I want a computer, not a decorative element for my bedroom. Nor do I care that it is thin enough to blow away. Don't build it that way so you can use it as an excuse to keep its users from upgrading the RAM or SSD's down the road. If I had the choice as to what is considered more important in computing, its vast array of colors and thinnes is not one of them. The Apple we once knew and loved died with its original creator Steve Jobs. Now its a greedy, arrogant, beast that takes the attidude that if something isn't working for you than its because its your fault OR you need to go and buy a new system. And yes, when you talk with them, that is their offered solution. They will tell you with a smile as if it is a viable and authentic solution, that If something isn't working for you, then you need to purchase a newer or larger Apple computer. In simple terms...GFY Apple. No More.

Ik verkies Apple Music boven andere streamingdiensten vanwege de hoge audiokwaliteit, de intuïtieve interface en het grote aanbod in verschillende genres.

Ik ben een liefhebber van klassieke muziek. In 2023 was ik nog heel tevreden met de wekelijkse updates met nieuwe klassieke albums die integraal konden worden beluisterd. Daar is in 2024 flink de klad in gekomen. Soms is maar een enkele track te beluisteren. Ordening op release-datum werkt niet goed meer. Ik heb geen behoefte aan een aparte app met klassieke muziek lijkt winst, maar is dat voor mij helemaal niet. Gedwongen worden om eerst een genre of componist te kiezen en dan pas toegang te krijgen tot enkele nieuwe releases werkt voor mij absoluut niet. De zoveelste zogenaamde “verbetering” die voor mij een verslechtering is - dat lijkt bij Apple soms een soort hobby te zijn.
