Hi,
I am experiencing some sync problem between my iDevices. For example, I have downloaded "Intro To Yo-Yo Ma" and can see the playlist under "Apple Music Playlist" on my MBP. However, even though there is a "Intro To Yo-Yo Ma" playlist on my iPhone 6 Plus, there aren't any songs. It's an empty playlist:

An other problem is "Add to My Music"; when I use it on my iTunes (MBPr), I can go "My Music" and see the song/album. However, nothing is added to my iPhone's "My Music". Even if, I use "Add to My Music" through my iPhone's "For You", "New", "Radio" and "Connect", can't see any songs/albums on iPhone's or MBPr's "My Music" tab.

These are not very frustrating, if you use a Mac and iPhone, but I use the music app on 2 iPhones, 2 Macs and an iPad. Trying sync (by sync I mean searching songs/albums and adding them one by one) all songs can be huge problem.

Does anyone experiencing same/similar problems like mine? Also, does anyone know how to solve it? Thanks! :)

I keep having a similar issue. Any songs that I like from my phone are not sync'd to iTunes on my computer. Any playlists I create on my phone are not sync'd to my computer. Same thing from computer to phone, no sync.

I am guessing, we are the minority, since no one has complained... :/
 
Same here. Very inconsistent in creating and syncing playlists for all devices. I seem to spend most of my time checking behind Apple Music to see if it actually works. Great service in theory but execution is lacking.
