Just updated my phone and started my free trial.



I have a long roadtrip next week and am loving all the suggested playlists on here that you can download for offline use. There is a whole section for driving, working out, relaxing, getting it on(yes that is what it says ),whatever. Will def make use of those. Granted I have never used Spotify so don't know if they had something similar already in place.

I downloaded it and am trying to save certain songs in "my music" but it says I need to turn on the "iCloud music library" in settings before I can add them. Well I go to setting to turn it on and it says it is unable to do it. Anyone have that problem or any ideas on how to fix it? Do I need to buy iTunes Match or something?


Anyone? My coworker is having the same issue and we cannot figure this out. TIA!

I've read you are listening to your own copy that was uploaded to the cloud

I'll be keeping my iTunes Match because I have a bunch of bootleg albums/live recordings that are not on the iTunes store and therefore not available through Apple Music.

I don't think that's how it works. Because I have an LSU fight song that's obviously not on iTunes. So it's streaming my own version from the cloud. So obviously whatever you have locally on your computer, should still be able to stream to your devices. But it just won't be the iTunes version.

Man I really hope I'm understanding this correctly

Did anyone else notice that Taylor Swift's album is on there? I thought she wrote a letter against having her music on there.

They responded to the letter and are paying up. Happened in less than 24 hours

I restarted like someone said and still nothing. If anyone figures this out please let us know. So annoying!

ETA: I found a fix here: LINK. Basically you have to just keep trying it over and over and over until it works.

iTunes Match is now a subset of the overall Apple Music Service. You pay for one or the other. Apple Music effectively replaces iTunes Radio for those that upgrade iTunes/iOS.

But iTunes radio is still free. Apple Music has a fee.

I upgraded to iOS 8.4 and am able to listen to Apple Music radio without subscribing or using the trial. I think there may be adds and/or limited skips for free users.

Tried everything and still can't make a playlist. It lets me add the music, then when I try to listen to the playlist, no songs show up. It shows up as a local playlist, but not an apple music playlist.

Is there anyway to export Spotify playlist to Apple Music? Put way too much time into those to abandon Spotify if not
