Lots of missing songs on Apple Music (UK)

I can't help feeling like people who prefer Apple Music to Spotify suffer from Stockholm syndrome (kidding, please don't beat me up)

The UI on Apple Music is better and it does a better job of integrating with my music collection. The curation is better as well. YMMV.

Better is subjective, I find it brighter and more colourful and sexy, but too simplistic and confusing, harder to find my music and the music that is made off line etc

Basically by trying to be more simplistic, I think they are made it more confusing and complicated.

You also say the curation is better, yet everything on the recommended for me has basically zero interest for me, and some of them are just utterly bizzare considering the music and look for and stream. For instance Janet *** Jackson popped up, despite me not going even close to her type of music.

Sigh. Do you not know what YMMV means?

You're also confusing subjectivity with relativity.

Read it and just tweeted the guy who wrote it, more stuff is showing up but still quite a way to go

Never mind. I'm an idiot. Deleted

Digging up this old thread, I still have a list of missing albums, roughly 25 or so on my list which are avaliable everywhere else

One thing I've found strange with Apple Music is some albums state the track is unavailable to play but I then look at another album (be it by the same artist or as part of a compilation) and it's there ready to be streamed/stored to my iPhone!
