Not even the slightest bit like you. Anything can do better than them.

BEATS RADIO SUCKS,,,,,! But oh does the streaming rock hard! xD

So where is this 8.4?

gamerscul9870 - June 30, 2015 at 11:54am

It's a little over 2 hours left till release.

Beats1 shows that it is playing Live in iOS 9 Beta 2 right now. It's playing Brian Eno.

Microsoft did this same exact thing with it's music service for the Zune years ago at the same price point. It wasn't a big deal then so why is it a big deal now? I don't get it.

Apple always expands on what others did same or not. Take Google wallet for example. It did try to be the first mobile wallet, but up until Apple pay, that has changed quite some time. Not to compare that to this, but think about what Apple would do here.

Have you guys heard of Audicity? Install, select source, play music and record.

gamerscul9870 - June 29, 2015 at 2:17am

Audacity is hard to understand. What's with the 2 bars of whatever's recorded? And with all the controls, it feels like I'm trying to learn a Microsoft office program. To answer your question though, why you ask? Why store the music on your device when you can save space, plus offline streaming so...

gamerscul9870 - June 28, 2015 at 10:14pm

I am excited for Apple music and anything 8.4 is fixing. Bring it.

Sona - June 28, 2015 at 10:05pm

Whiney E. Cojoney - June 29, 2015 at 1:22pm

8.4 is jailbreakable. And all those who rushed to update and get 8.3 jbroken will have to update and do it again.

m_thoroughbred - June 28, 2015 at 10:04pm

I’m going to get it cause I want to.

SayingWhatEveryonesThinking - June 28, 2015 at 6:39pm

Update to iOS 8.4: YES Sign up for new Apple Radio Service: HELL NO

gamerscul9870 - June 28, 2015 at 7:49pm

I say yes to everything any new iOS offers. Free 3 month trial for Apple music service? Hell fcking yes.

PNHUNTER - June 28, 2015 at 6:38pm

How needy are you for music that you have to pay for it when there are thousands of FREE stations out there! And FREE music downloads...I heard...YouTube is full of free music. SoundCloud is full of free music. Rhapsody is free through T-Mo...FREE FREE FREE!

gamerscul9870 - June 30, 2015 at 3:02am

You do realize tmobile a network uses any music service at no extra cost, so it's an advantage on their network, not to mention offline streaming compared to the rest.

PaladinLV - June 28, 2015 at 3:33pm

“We love music, and the new Apple Music service puts an incredible experience at every fan’s fingertips,” I ALREADY HAVE THAT FOR FREE! IT'S CALLED a RADIO!

gamerscul9870 - June 28, 2015 at 4:28pm

Radio requires a huge antenna that can barely work depending on how perfectly lined up it is to a station, not to mention you can't take them anywhere for how bulky and how you can't select songs from certain stations nor organize them. Did I forget to mention to you have to select fm or am on them to also make sure you find the right station number along with waiting for the song to come up? Apple music doesn't do any of that. You simple search what you want and find it within a few seconds. Radios are obsolete nowadays.

Zanka - June 28, 2015 at 4:40pm

Radios are obsolete? What are you 11? Bulky? Please you can find radios the size of your phone lol. Aside from the convenience I hope your data plan up to par. Otherwise arch your back for ATT.

gamerscul9870 - June 28, 2015 at 7:48pm

have you not heard of att? Besides with them ,it's considered better than radios. No more trying to adjust a dial are try to get good signal without any statics problems anymore, plus it all fits in the pockets, and less controls. Why not?
