IMG_6966.JPG hey everyone.

Every album me or my sister downloads has tracks that can't be played.

I'll search for those songs individually and they're available. I'm just confused.

To be honest the whole Apple Music thing is becoming a pain and I might just switch to Spotify where you know every song listed in an album is actually there but ideally I'd like to stay with Apple Music.

Does anyone know what the issue is?

Thanks!

Seriously, like 90% of the people complaining here about Apple Music have been Brits. What's going on over there?
I was about to say the same things. It seems like AM in the UK misses many songs and it is just worth it to stay with Spotify. Here in the good USA I rarely find albums with missing songs and they are usually compilation greatest hits albums and on all the other services Play Music etc they are also missing too which they should not even bother then to add the album.

Hey. Is this a technical issue or rights?

I thought the point of Apple Music was basically everything on iTunes was available. Is that how it is in the states?

There are days where I'll listen to a song on my phone then the next day that song won't be available for download. I'm baffled.

Does anyone know the actual reason for this?

Thanks a lot

Spotify is worse trialing it and one Madonna album is missing and 1 track from the 1989 Album that even Play Music has. AM actually has the most music of all the services.
