And below that, they have a section on a new Android app to help to migrate to iOS.

Ha, oh man. I have a friend who insists on not moving to Touch ID because he doesn't want anyone to have his finger print and, "Besides, I'm so much faster entering my passcode than I know the touch ID could ever be," even though I've shown him how fast it is on mine. 6 digit passcodes are gonna piss him off so much, I can't wait.

The six digit requirement is only if you use Touch ID. If he's not using Touch ID, the default is still 4.

Oh bummer...looks like Apple music IS replacing music.app.

I hope I can clear away all the features I'll never use.*

*unlikely, but I'll adapt and move on. :sigh:

EDIT: Yeahhh..they're making Music.app even more convoluted to push Apple Music. To get to my own music, I'll now have to open the app, go to My Music and use a weird hodge-podge Album/Playlist view to find what I want. Rather than just opening the app and going to playlist.

I get why they're pushing their music service, but I'm an "old man". I like my music, let me listen to my music easily.

That's not really my point, I just think it is weird how Apple is touting that X now supports Apple Pay when it is just off the shelf hardware. Like my nail salon supports Apple Pay, they don't give a poo poo, their credit card machine just came with a reader built in. Walgreen now supports Apple Pay! With the same terminals that they have had for years and years for the credit cards with NFC chips that never became very popular.

The differentiator with apple pay is the tokenization and bank back-end stuff for it, which is why you see so much talk about bank support. IIRC the last incarnation of google wallet tried to do an end run around the banks and/or put all your purchases through your google account and failed at that.

I'll reserve full blown whining until I've actually tried the new app. :)

OK, so this is what I'm taking away from the Apple Music:
  • If you have Beats, you can move your subscription over to Apple Music. All your playlists, likes, and offline music are preserved.
  • You have access to the entire iTunes Store library and can do offline storage.
  • It does *not* replace iTunes Match in that Apple Music is only for music in the iTunes Store. If a lot of your music was uploaded via iTunes Match, you're better off keeping that service.
  • Works on Android
  • Works with Apple Watch... I'm not seeing the usefulness of that feature, but whatever.
  • Has a "family plan" using iCloud Family Sharing
This is actually looking pretty drat good.

From what I can tell, Apple Music includes iTunes Match, but if you're a current iTunes Match user who doesn't want to become an Apple Music "member" then that's fine, iTunes Music will still exit as a separate service.

I had read that as Apple Music works only stuff they already had in their store. The info page does state:

quote:

Does Apple Music work with iTunes Match?
Yes. Apple Music and iTunes Match are independent but complementary.
Which makes me think it's not quite the same thing. Obviously if all your music in iTunes was purchased from Apple, iTunes Match doesn't make sense in combination with Apple Music. But if you have a lot music that is no longer released or indie label stuff that isn't on iTunes, then you might still need Match if you want that music available for streaming to your iDevice.

I like your version better, though.

E: Since there's a 'free' tier of Apple Music, maybe it's one of those iTunes Match for people on the free tier and not needed for the subscription tier.

I wonder if that's really how it's gonna work. My Match subscription expires in a few days, but I'll probably be signing up for Apple Music when it comes out. If Match really is included then I won't be renewing my subscription this month. I'm trying to find some info about this but I'm not having any luck...

Edit: I did buy all my music from iTunes so I guess I won't be needing Match anymore.

How does Apple Music know what songs are in my personal library?
With an Apple Music membership, your entire library lives in iCloud. We compare every track in your collection to the Apple Music library to see if we have a copy. If we do, you can automatically listen to it straight from the cloud. If you have music that’s not in our catalog, we upload those songs from iTunes on your Mac or PC. It’s all in iCloud, so it won’t take up any space on your devices.

Welp. There you go. I'm glad to be proven wrong in this case.

The iTunes Match statement must be for the non-subscription version of Apple Music. Which, looking at the feature comparison, makes sense.

IIRC the last incarnation of google wallet tried to do an end run around the banks and/or put all your purchases through your google account and failed at that.

No, I appreciate all the work Apple did on the back end to get banks on board but I'm just saying from a consumer stand point stores aren't really doing anything to "support" Apple Pay, they are just off the shelf NFC enabled terminals that have been around for years even if nobody used them.

Actually I think it is kind of funny, half of the NFC terminals that I see have been around for like 10 years back when NFC enabled credit cards were going to be the next hot deal and never caught on. Like I said, my grocery store and nail salon both take Apple Pay but they don't give a flying gently caress about it, their terminals just happen to be NFC enabled. It's like with CVS and the whole CurrentC deal, they have had NFC terminals in most of their stores for years and year and years and had to go out of their way to disable NFC when NFC became Apple Pay and not just this thing that nobody uses.

edit: Trying not to be :hurr: Apple didn't invent NFC, I just think it's funny, it's like Chase bragging that you can use their credit card at pretty much any merchant, it has nothing to do with Chase, it's that all the credit cards are on on the Visa or Mastercard system, the retailers don't have to or give a poo poo that you card is Chase or not, they just care that it goes through the VisaNet system. Woohoo, you credit card terminal conforms to a decade old international standard, now get Chip and PIN dummies.

edit 2: I feel like I am being pedantic, if ApplePay gets retailers to replace their lovely terminals with ones that support Chip & PIN and NFC, I'm all for it as a person that has gone half a dozen credit cards in the past two years because of data breaches, it just seems weird for Apple to brag about how many (few) retailers have non-complete poo poo insecure terminals that also happen to support the standard that Apple is using for NFC payments.

There's been an updated version in the 8.4 beta without the Apple Music stuff. Had some nice improvements like the "recently added" section and queuing(finally). I doubt I'll be using Picky anymore after 8.4 comes out.
