    Apple Music done for good.

    Don't want to post yet another rant about AM but I am anyway. Used the trail for 3 months. Loved the music on there but what is the point when it is so buggy server side. I really gave the Android app a chance but it is the worst app ever. After over 6 months in beta thinking by the time AM...

    No Web Player Workaround?

    Hello everyone. Right now i'm using Spotify mostly for the web version which comes in handy at work. Has anyone found a way to use Apple Music at work? The only alternative I can think of is bringing a bluetooth speaker and pairing it with my iPhone.

    Apple Music Data Song Stream

    Recently I removed my unlimited data plan from my AT&T plan because I was only averaging about 6gb/month so I got a much cheaper plan allowing me 20gb/month thinking that I would not ever come close to that.
