Apple Music

Is it me, or have Crapple screwed up iTunes with Apple music?
I can't get it to play in the car correctly, I can't seem to buy any music, it keeps offering a free trial as a pre cursor to a streaming service I don't want.

Can anyone recommend an app to play the music I have rather than this Crapple nonsense and how do I purchase songs, I don't want to pay ad nauseum to stream them

I haven't noticed any of those issues but I did follow a friends advice to access settings then 'General' then 'Restrictions' then once you have chosen a PIN or entered an existing PIN, block Apple Music Connect.

I joined this apple music, and none of it streams properly to the DS via Bluetooth. I think I may have to click "make available offline" 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

As much as I love my iPhone 6 plus and all my previous iPhones and iPods and pads I absolutely despise iTunes and apple wanting to control how you set your music up its the most unfriendly cumbersome piece of crappy software I have ever used. As a result I turn everything off so it can try and do a thing it can't sync to anything and I do everything manually I even turn off crappy I cloud.

I had the same issue with my iPhone 6,rather than save the file to the phone ( saving memory )it allows you to stream the song. If you have loads of data usage and a good 3/4G signal then the idea good. Unfortunately not all of us have huge data allowance or good signal areas. I have found that if you click the three red dots next to the song/album it gives you the option to download the song again so you don't have to steam it on the go. Not sure if this helps mate.

I copy all the albums I want to hear in the car to one of these and leave it plugged into the usb slot in the centre console. Albums are then available via the touchscreen in alphabetical album order, or via track, or artist.

Settings / Music / Show Apple Music = Off

I am a self-confessed Apple geek and even I can't stand this implementation. I don't want iTunes Match, neither do I want to subscribe to their iCloud Music Library or Apple Music. I just want my own files, synced between my Mac and iOS devices, as I want them.

Try the above setting and it should get your iOS Music App back to how it was prior to iOS 8.4.

iTunes is a godawful mess and needs re-writing from the ground up.
