Why I am switching to Apple Music

8/1/2015

I have already written an article about the 20 things I would like to see Apple change with Apple Music, but I have decided to switch subscription streaming from Rdio despite the current issues.  

First off, I should mention that I mainly use iOS (iPhone 6 plus and iPad Air 2) for listening to music (Airplay or Dragonfly DAC at home, Bluetooth at work and in the car), so the switch from Rdio is mostly related to how the app works with iOS.   I do use iTunes on the Mac on occasion and don't have a major problem with it, although I feel the iOS makes better use of the service if only for Siri.  

Below are the main reasons for switching:

1.  Siri - When I was itemizing all of the things Apple Music was missing, I came to the realization that some features are just much more important than others.  There are many features on Rdio that I prefer to Apple Music (continue play, artist radio slider, and the ability to sort albums by different criteria, just to name a few).  However, Siri has made my life so much easier when I don’t want mess with the interface at all.  For example, I may be listening to sports radio in the car because the Griz just signed Marc Gasol.  However, three minutes in, they decided to discuss fishing…yes, fishing.  I decide to listen to music, but I don’t want to mess with the app.  I simply hit one button on the Nav control unit to change to bluetooth audio and one button on the iPhone. Siri then comes up on my car’s bluetooth, I tell "her" to shuffle all of my music and my music starts to play.  

When I am at home and just want to hear an album, I just pick up the iPhone and say "play the album Way out West by Sonny Rollins" or "play something by Sam and Dave" and music just starts playing.  It is great for home, the car, work, etc.

Having Siri integration is a major game changer!

2.  iTunes Match integration - I have been using iTunes Match for years.  The problem is that I would be in the Rdio app, then want to hear The Beatles, and I would need to leave one app and start another.  It was a pain.  Apple Music mingles my music collection with Apple Music and gives me the ability to easily listen to The Beatles or Prince without leaving the app.

NOTE:  Please do not delete your local library after you put your music in the cloud.  That is not a smart thing to do.  

!!!ALWAYS!!! Keep more than one local copy of all  your files.  If Apple somehow messes up every file in the cloud or on iTunes, you can simply delete them and import the files from the backup again (after you create a new backup from the old backup assuming the worst case scenario and all of your old iTunes files are ruined).  I thought this was academic, but I see well respected tech bloggers that haven't figured it out.  Maybe I need a post on that subject ?  Actually, I have written about how I backup up files a couple of times.  Link 1, Link 2.

3. For You - The recommendations are outstanding for when I don’t know what I want to hear or I just want to explore.  I prefer this particular page over any suggestion page available on any other service.  

The playlists introduce you to new artists and they also mingle artists' albums they know you like with albums that they think you will like.   The playlists they recommend are often fantastic with suggestions like  "ON SAX:BOBBY KEYS"....that includes The Stones, Clapton, BB King, Harry Nilsson, and John Lennon.  I would never have the ability to easily put this playlist together myself.  


In fact, I rarely ever use playlists.  I have mainly been more album oriented which is why I like artists like Radiohead, Sinatra, Pink Floyd, etc.   However, Apple has the ability to put together compelling playlists that not only include artists and songs that I would theoretically put in a playlist, but new artists and songs that I may not even know.  This leads to new discoveries, and in short, it is AWESOME!

4.  Car integration - I mentioned Siri above, but there is more.  In fact, I may create a video on just how great this works in my car (2014 BMW).  With Rdio, I had the ability to use Bluetooth audio, album art, and the ability to skip songs (Spotify didn't work properly at all..which is one of the reasons I dumped them).  

With Apple Music, I get several new features like the ability to search for albums, artists, genres, right from the navigation screen.  It has all of my music and any album or song I have moved to my library from Apple Music. It also keeps the playlists that I save and radio stations I have saved.  When I play an album, I can see and select any song on the album from the nav screen or from the heads up display with just the steering wheel controls.  Keep in mind, this is the first version of the app and it is much more integrated than the services that have been around for years.  

5.  New - this fits my needs better than other services, as well.  The ability to see a page with new releases from all genres combined, but also with the ability to find new releases based on genre is perfect for my needs.  If I want to hear new blues albums, I know exactly where I need to go to find the newest releases.  

The "New" page for each genre also contains recommended Playlists like "Blues for the Modern World", "Best of Chicago Blues", etc. (to give you a couple examples from the Blues genre).  Song charts for the genre are also here along with video and album charts in the Top Charts section.

6.  The other features like Radio and Connect aren't game changers for me, but I wouldn't remove them if I had the option.  Sometimes I want to hear ECM Selected Recordings, Mixtape, or other stations I created recently and the Radio section is the place to find them.  I use the Connect page to keep up with new entries from Apple Music genres like Apple Music Jazz, Apple Music Country, Apple Music Classic Rock, etc.  and Beats 1 creators ( even though I rarely ever listen to Beats1).

Final Thoughts 

While I am not saying that Apple Music is perfect, I do feel that even right out of the gate it is the best service for my needs.  Since I use iOS at home and away, the integration with Siri alone could have been enough to get me to switch.  Those that are complaining about the many features and confusion could just as easily hit one button and tell Siri to play something.  It is so easy a 5 year old could do it.  

The complexity comes from it having so many features and the way we interact with the app determines whether we think those features are worthwhile.  Personally, I would keep all of the features, including Beats1 that I could live without.  The reason is that I have always preferred having options available over not having them available.  Maybe I will hit that Beats1 button out of boredom one day and be introduced to an amazing artist.  I just don't want to throw away that option.  

In short, I spent months deciding on which service to switch to when MOG was first bought by Beats.  I compared Rdio to Tidal, Spotify, and Beats and it won in so many categories that I was very happy with the service.  However, Apple Music beats Rdio right out of the gate with convenience (Siri), recommendations (For You), music selection (I have easy access to The Beatles, Prince, and Neil Young albums I own), and it works better in my car (Bluetooth Audio integration with the navigation screen in my car).  Apple isn't perfect at this point, but we are essentially talking about a beta, even if they didn't call it that.  Of course, there are bugs, but I have been using the service for a month and the bugs just aren't enough to make me want to switch back to using Rdio, so I cancelled the Rdio subscription service.

The Top Twenty Apple Music Wishlist - The After Party

8/1/2015

You may remember I had a pre-launch wish list blog post that I released back in May.  Well, now that I am past the initial thrill of finally having music streaming with Siri integration and having my iTunes Match library merged into a streaming service, I am now ready for an updated wish list.  These are the top twenty things I would like to see addressed in the near future by Apple:

1.  Remote control features - The ability to control a computer app with the iOS app was the main reason I stayed with Rdio when Tidal came out with lossless streaming.  Apple had this built into their Remote app, but you can’t control Apple Music with it.  They need to add the ability ASAP.

2.  Airplay multi-room streaming from iOS.  It can’t be a post-PC world if I have to go to a computer to have access to features that should and can work with iOS. 

3.  Continue play - when an album ends, it should start playing music that it has curated around my tastes or similar music rather than just stopping.  Rdio can do this and Apple needs to do this.

4.  Playlists - you should be able to create a new playlist right from the song/album.  Right now it feels clunky because you have to navigate away from the page, add a new playlist, and make your way back to the song/album (it is easier to do if you started playing the album before navigating away, though). 

5.  Better Siri interaction - When I say “Play Classic Jazz from 1955", the service should know what I want to hear.  Don’t get me wrong, the way Siri works now is amazing, they just need a few tweaks.

6.  Similar Artists - On iOS, sometimes I pull up an artist and look for similar artists.  They have each artist present in a round icon with their photo.  Half the time, I click on it and it does nothing.  Probably a bug, but there is missing links that should be there.

7.  Bugs…  Too many of them.  People should not have to worry about messing up their entire library when installing the new version of iTunes.  When I open the app, I should not get a screen telling me to sign up for Apple Music after I have already signed up.  The iCloud music merging was buggy, as well.  I had to toggle the “switch” back and forth before my library showed up.

8. Better instructions - An explanation of how DRM works with your files that are uploaded, what it means to have the iCloud music library box checked in iTunes preferences, etc.  I think a lot of the stuff you can figure out if you have ever used an app, but these basic features need to be spelled out.

9.  Videos - I should be able to Airplay video to my AppleTV.  Instead, I hit the Airplay button and only get music.    

10.  Video should have a full screen option on the iPad.  Instead, it is in a small box that does’t utilize the entire screen in landscape mode.

11.  Speaking of landscape mode, I got a 6 plus to be able to turn the phone on the side and use it in landscape mode.  In this case, it works for video, but the rest of the app is inexplicably only in portrait.  

12.  AppleTV app - If I can’t Airplay videos, I should be able to play them natively on my AppleTV, but there isn’t an Apple Music app.  The entire point of having an AppleTV instead of a Roku/Fire is that it interacts with Apple stuff.  Not having this capability at launch is a disappointment.

13. An option for lossless or hi-rez versions of the music for an additional fee.  Right now, Tidal has lossless audio that sounds fantastic.  I realize that Apple has “mastered for iTunes” songs that sound great, however, I don’t see a way to know when or if you are getting “mastered for iTunes” quality.  Also, no matter what they do with their lossy compression, lossless has the potential to sound better.  

14.  Speaking of compression, I want the ability to dial down the bitrate from 256k.  AT&T is nice enough to send me a text when I am nearing my monthly data cap.  I would love to be able to tell the app to steam at a lower resolution on cellular only.

15.  Album/Artist Reviews - Rdio uses AllMusic/Rovi reviews to populate their reviews.  Apple apparently has their own method and it is awful.  I thought I would just go to AllMusic’s website to get reviews, but it has pop up ads that steal the audio steam, so your music cuts off.   Apple has spent a lot of time on the “For You” recommendations, but when a new album turns up, you usually have no way to read about it in the app.  

16.  Pick up where you left off - When I close the app, I want the music I was listening to when I closed it to show up in the que when I restart the app.  

17.  Sorting albums by release date, alphabetical, or its popularity.

18.  Search/Listen to music by music label. ECM, a Blue Note, etc.

19.  Bring back Homesharing - I don’t want to waste my data cap streaming from the web when my music is sitting on iTunes in the office.  Also, my music is in lossless formats.  I don’t want to stream in 256k when the lossless file is available.

20.  Instead of putting Beats1 at the top of the page (on iOS) with a huge icon, they need to put “recently played” at the top.  If people are listening to Beats1, it will be in the recently played.  If they aren’t, it should show up below their recently played music.

Is Apple Music Perfect??

7/2/2015

I will cut to the chase...No, it isn’t perfect.  However, none of the other services available are perfect, either.  However, it is a great service that I have been enjoying thoroughly since it came to market and it is FREE for 3 months!

What I Like About Apple Music

I have three words for you:  Siri, Siri, Siri.  I have heard some complaints at how much has been packed into the iOS app and how it has gotten more complicated.  Yeah, it has “For You”,  “New”, “Radio”, “Connect”, and “My Music”.  Just because it has tons of features, it doesn’t mean you have to use every single feature all the time.  I tried Beats 1, for example, and it did not fit my taste.  Nothing wrong with that.  I also use Adobe’s Photoshop app and have never used the 3D feature or many other features.  It is still one of my favorite programs for photography.

That being said, any idiot can use Siri. You simply push a button and say, for example,  “Play James Taylor’s Newest album” and his newest album “Before the World” will start playing.  Want to add it to your music collection?  Just say “Add the album to My Music” and it is added.  Want to hear a specific album?  I just say “Play Sonny Rollins Way out West” and it starts playing.  For those that are so confused by the app, just stick to this format and you should be just fine.  You can also just say “play top hits from 1977” or  “let’s listen to some jazz” or “play something by the Beastie Boys” and it simply starts playing.  Since it is intertwined with my collection, I can also say “Play Revolver Mono Remaster” and its starts playing The Beatles “Revolver (2009 Mono Remaster)” even though it isn't available on Apple Music.

To test the ease of use, I asked my girlfriend, that never uses music apps (she likes SiriusXM in the car with an occasional CD thrown in for good measure), to play Journey's Escape using the app.  Five seconds later, her album was playing.  She intuitively knew to use the search button and type in the album name.  

To say it is complicated is to say that plumbing is complicated every time you use the faucet.  

For You 

I have mentioned that I loved Beats “For You” section and I am very happy they brought it over to Apple Music.  I also thought ”The Sentence” was a dumb gimmick and it is gone.  The “For You” section is fantastic.  You start the service by choosing balloons of your favorite genres and artists and it continues to gather more information for suggestions by who you follow.  

The choices they come up with have been interesting, imaginative, and simply a fantastic way to discover new music.  I have tried every service out there and the curation on Apple Music is the best (at least for me).

Your Own Music Along for the Ride

I was already a member of iTunes Match, but having that music available alongside the on-demand streaming app just makes me want to use the service more often.   I have seen a couple bugs in my collection, like the app showing a picture of Koko Taylor when I pull up the artist Willie Dixon, but it is hardly even a real problem and I am sure Apple will get the issue fixed in time.  However, having the Beatles available at the touch of a button or via a voice command is simply priceless. 

Picture

New Stuff

The New Music section is a welcome update from when I tested Beats Music last year.  Now you can get to all of the new releases much easier.  I also like the tab at the top that lets you choose different genres.  That way, if you are a fan of Jazz music, you don’t have to suffer through a bunch of releases in other categories.  Just go straight to Jazz and you have “new music”, “hot tracks”, “recent releases”, “top songs”, “more top charts” (this pulls up top songs, albums, and videos), playlists, and more.  

I should mention that I have several books (like All Music and Rolling Stone Album Guide) about music, so I love to dig deep into certain genres.  Personally, I consider this type of variety in many genres to by one of the best things about the service, but I can see how some would consider it complicated.  For those people, see my section above related to Siri.

iTunes

iTunes got an overhaul to include Apple Music.  I personally prefer using iOS since you get Siri, but there is one major plus to the iTunes implementation….multi-room Airplay.  While I don’t know why this isn’t implemented on iOS, it is nice to have it built right into the iTunes interface.   The Beats1 radio service is not currently compatible with Airplay in iTunes, but you can still use Airfoil to send audio where you want it.  

Complaints?

Overall, they have given us a lot of options.  However, I still have a few small complaints:

1.  I will complain about the lack of Apple Music Multi-Room Airplay implementation in iOS until the cows come home.  iOS is able to do this without an issue with the Whaale app, so it makes no sense that this isn’t available right now.  

2.  Remote app or Apple Music on iOS needs to be updated to control Apple Music running on a computer.  You can control Spotify and Rdio running on OSX with their iOS apps, so there is no reason Apple can’t get this done. 

3.  Lack of continue play - When a song ends, I want to continue to listen to related music.  I don’t want music to end until I tell it to.  Rdio already has this feature.

4.  Lack of bit rate adjustability - A lot of people want to use lower bitrates because of their cellular data plans.  The other services let you independently control the bitrate on cellular and wifi.  Apple Music needs this, too.

5.  Lack of choice in artist radio - Rdio has a slider for "artist only" that slides to "adventurous".  Nothing like it on Apple Music.

6.  No AppleTV?  Really Apple, you don't even support your own stuff?  It is supposed to be coming in the Fall, but I want it now!

7.  I love the ability to watch videos and I like how easy it is to find video in iOS (Tidal could learn from the Apple implementation).  However, I could not find a way to open it in full screen on the iPad, there isn't a native Airplay button for video, and when I tried mirroring from iOS the screen would go black.  If this is some sort of licensing issue, Apple should have fought harder to get Airplay compatibility. If it is a bug, hopefully, it will be resolved soon.

8.  Bitrate - I would love to see lossless streaming for more money (like Tidal), but I know I am just dreaming.

Final Thoughts for Now

While there are more features and bugs (or things missing) that I mention here, keep in mind that the service is on version 1 and it is free for 3 months.  That makes it a "no brainer" to at least give it a try if you are on iOS (it won't be on Android until the Fall) .  I have mentioned my love for Rdio in the past  but Apple Music may be enough to get me to switch.  The Siri integration and iTunes Matching features are just huge advantages even if Rdio has so many great features that Apple currently doesn't match.
