    Music App: Any way to copy local playlists and retain Ratings and Favorites?

    In the year 2024, I am still burning playlists to DVDs just so that I can share them and import them onto other Macs. It seems like this method is still the only way to copy and move a playlist while retaining the Star Ratings and Favorite (heart) status. I've tried the 'Playlist Export' (XML)...

    Apple Music Playlists album name + details

    HomePod HomePod and Siri - inconsistent playback of Playlists

    One oddity I've noticed is that I can ask "Hey Siri play my playlist" Siri says "Which playlist would you like me to play" I then say the name of the playlist. Siri then says "Sure, playing XXXX playlist" - and then usually plays the playlist but sometimes just goes to sleep at that point...
