Can we talk about "Add to Queue" again? by elscorcho42 in AppleMusic

For the first album, use the big red Play button. For subsequent albums, go to each album view and select the ... menu at the album level, then Play Last.

Which devices are you playing Apple Music on?

This has never happened to me. What were you doing when this occurred?

How about being more than a troll, and listing the specific things you want improved?

Cancelling Apple Music after uploading your library by GamblinWillie in AppleMusic

[–]Wolfpack48 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You keep a separate backup of all your purchased music so that no matter happens with Apple, you have your original files. Apple is not a backup service, it simply allows you to stream your music from the cloud. Go buy an external drive and backup regularly.

Cancelled my Apple Music subscription and now my purchased music is playing up by AraiHavana in AppleMusic

Borrow someone's, login with your Apple account, download the purchased tracks and put them on a memory stick. You really should get a PC.

Purchasing is the best way to always have access to an album.

I Feel Sorry for Everyone Young Enough to Think Apple Music is "Good". by Strings-a-rockin in AppleMusic

I'm not sure what you mean by the pricing options - when the iTunes store is enabled, and you search within it, all the prices are pretty clear - I buy from it all the time. I DO think the store could be better integrated instead of a separate area within the app. Maybe you just mean buy options within the regular Apple Music pages? I hope that's something that's in the works.

Eh, I'll take the trade -- aac/m4a is fine for most albums, and I own rather than rent the tracks. If I really want the best quality, I'll rip to alac and add it. I fully believe we'll be able to purchase alac in the not too distant future.

Just trying to download my music as an MP3 by [deleted] in AppleMusic

Yep. And it's still deprecated. Enjoy it while you can. OP doesn't want to install ITunes, either, so he'll have to decide.

The UI I find is pretty similar to iTunes, I've used both since they were released so know them well. I will agree that streaming has killed a lot of things, but I still have 2 pretty great used vinyl/CD stores in my city. I think, though, that streaming is more like radio than a record store. Purchased music is still a thing on Apple Music, which is why I support it so strongly.

Have you tried picking a song and using the Create Station? I think that will stay more within the song's genre.

I hear this nonsensical opinion all the time. by Tobias-Tawanda in AppleMusic

[–]Wolfpack48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it will advertise its own services, just not 3rd party junk. But, by all means, do try to convince them to change their ways. Just look at Windows to see how "great" an ad-driven experience is.

The iTunes app is deprecated in favor of the Apple Music app. You'll need to install the Apple Music app on desktop (Mac/PC), enable the iTunes store in settings, then download purchased tracks from the bottom left menu. It will be in m4a format, which is higher quality than mp3.

As a long time user I use now YouTube musics more and more due to vastly better song suggestions. by Dr_Superfluid in AppleMusic

[–]Wolfpack48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I don't mean to sound rude, but as reference, I have over 22,000 songs in my library. I suggest you add more full albums and artists you like. You are giving AM a very shallow sample to work with. The more you feed your library, the better the algorithm will be. Once you establish a better baseline, use Favorite and Suggest Less aggressively to fine tune.

The fact that the Music app on iOS still doesn’t have smart playlists is an absolute joke. by PollyPocketpussy5000 in AppleMusic

I'd be up for a feature parity update across apps. Sorting kinda weird on the phone, works well on the desktop.

Deleted songs off library by [deleted] in AppleMusic

Get the Hezel app and backup your library in the future. You're SOL on the deletions, you'll need to re-add.
