Ondrej Holzman Eddy Cue has confirmed that he is becoming very active on Twitter, so shortly after the launch of Apple Music, he revealed important details on this social network. A new music service is coming to iOS 9, which is now in beta, next week. The transfer speed when streaming songs depends on the type of your connection.
Apple Music was released on iPhones and iPads yesterday along with iOS 8.4. However, those who have installed the beta version of the upcoming iOS 9 system were out of luck. Its new version, which will support the streaming service, Apple is going to not be released until next week, according to senior vice president of Internet Services Eddy Cue.
@D2007CAVS new iOS 9 beta coming early next week

The last test version of iOS 9 was released on Tuesday, June 23, so it can be expected that Apple will stick to the traditional two-week cycle and the next beta will be released on Tuesday, July 7. Interesting information on Eddy Cue's Twitter he shook his head also regarding the transfer speed of Apple Music, it will vary depending on the type of connection.
If you will be connected on Wi-Fi, the maximum bitrate can be expected, which should be 256kbps AAC. On the mobile connection, the quality will probably be reduced for the sake of smooth streaming and lower demands on data consumption.
@HiFiGuy528 bit rate depends on whether you are on WiFi or cellular

FINALLY ❤️
apple has a home for music and I don't hesitate for a second. spotify and google were the first to have these services, but apple took it to perfection. music finally has a home, and a luxurious one at that. Tim Cook is the leader, but Haroven is nice, funny, and I don't mind that he's gay. the fascist in the turtleneck is over and a new colorful era has arrived. I want colorful iPhones and iPads just like iPods were. two is not black and white, the world is colorful!
WE ARE PRIDE. WE ARE GAYS AND WE RULE THIS WORLD BITCH!
I only write negative observations, I don't talk about the positive ones:
1) why is Apple changing my album artwork from compilations to the original album? no one asked him for it and now it's just a mess, he couldn't afford it in iTunes, he changed it to iPhone yes.
2) sometimes I click on an artist, I expect albums to pop up but nothing, just a white screen and a back arrow, misery
3) there is not all the music I would like (and it is not strictly some Czech underground, e.g. The Wombats album), but there is more than on spotify
4) it bothers me that when I'm on 3G, local music and similar and recommended things (including covers) are loaded for me - in the Czech Republic, every kilobyte is good + it definitely eats up some energy from the battery
5) I would like to be able to turn off connect, I will never use it
6) I expected a much better offer of suitable songs for me (practically no competition against spotify in this regard)
7) albums linked to my iTunes do not have a "view full album" button
8) After clicking "show similar", iTunes does not give a choice from Apple Music, but from the iTunes Store, so just samples and click
9) "For You" cannot be refreshed in iTunes
I still like it a lot, but I would like to pick it up. If people make decisions based purely on utility and not on whether it's Apple, then Spotify will do well. I especially like the integration with iOS and iTunes. I don't like that at the beginning it's quite confusing and you don't know where what is and where it's actually playing from, and also the change of covers is enough for me...!
ad 5) Connect can be turned off in Settings > General > Restrictions
excellent! Thanks
you're welcome :)
Why fiddle with the settings a bit before complaining right away? The downloading of album artwork can of course also be turned off, already with version X of iTunes. :-)

Unfortunately, that's the way it is, the bitrate changes and it probably can't be influenced, so even on 4G I listen to poor quality. Dear Spotify, where can I set the bitrate or leave it on automatic...
