I hope I manage to make sense with this, but something about Apple Music really bugs me.

Say I click one particular track from an album... It automatically adds the rest of the album to my up next list. If the track I clicked is playing, I can add another track by clicking ‘Play Next’ but the rest of the original album is lined up after it.

Any idea how to stop this? So if I just want one track to play and nothing after it... how?!

For example, on Sonos I could select a track by choosing ‘Replace Playlist’ and it just plays that one track with nothing after.

Hope this makes sense!

it annoys me on Mac as well... adding just one track automatically as the rest of the album... The only way i know is after automatically adding, is just delete the rest apart from the songs u wish to keep... Time consuming, but i wish it was "If the user select all" *then* plays, add all to list.

You can't turn it off, but at least you can manually remove individual tracks from Up Next, as well as rearrange the order. The podcast app is even worse. It too automatically adds other episodes of a podcast to Up Next, and sometimes (not sure when or why) they can't removed or rearranged, adding a peculiar gunpoint element to the whole thing. The only way to avoid listening to them is to insert episodes of other podcasts before the sticky ones.
