Apple Music: Is It Worth It? This has been my experience

Apple's music streaming service saw the light of the sun a year and four months ago. During its first trimester of life, all users who wanted to enjoyed the service and its benefits totally free. Now we have seen news in the app for iOS and in its version within iTunes for Mac. More and more artists exclusively and during this month the Apple Music Festival, to enjoy with great artists live.

Well, Is it worth subscribing to this service? Is it difficult to adapt or can it cause some kind of problems? Let's see below what exactly it means for users, its advantages and their individual or family plan. I will also illustrate the post with my experience and that of my family, who have been enjoying it to the fullest for almost 5 months.

What does Apple Music offer you?

All the music in the world, or rather almost all, on all your devices and equipment. Online or downloaded. At your fingertips. Search and add to your Music, sometimes you don't even have to search for anything. The application itself advises you on albums, playlists and artists according to your interests and tastes. You can also explore music genres and events like the Apple Music Festival. News in the music industry, soundtracks, concerts, video clips and song lyrics. As well as custom or genre radios and Beats 1 news. More than 40 million songs in your pocket at the touch of your finger. With or without internet, random or not and 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

IOS 10 also includes a much more pleasant interface, although some users do not like it at first. And that brings new functions. The most notable is that of the Lyrics. You like to sing? Do you like karaoke? Well, you will like to have the lyrics of all your songs always at hand. Choose and find your favorite artists, add them to your music instantly and don't miss a thing. Do you know how comfortable it is to listen to a song on television or on the street and in a few seconds have it downloaded to your device? It seems to me something wonderful, and only streaming services like Apple Music or Spotify allow you to do it easily, comfortably and legally, unless you buy the songs on iTunes, which is much more expensive and is not the same.

The experience of different types of users

In my family we are subscribed to Apple Music 4 people with the family plan. This plan costs € 14,99 and allows entry of up to 6 members. We pay € 5 per person, and there is a member who does not pay anything directly, and no, it is not me. I am the administrator. I understand Apple and its products and every day and every moment I use Apple Music, that or Podcast. Another member also listens a lot and likes varied music. The third, who is the one who does not pay, opts only for music in Spanish and does not choose much variety, even so the service is very comfortable and he could hardly live without it. I don't know much about the fourth member. Live far away and pay religiously. He has not needed help to clarify with the use of the service and it seems that he likes it because he has not complained once. 4 months cost us € 20 each and the first 3 were free. My recomendation? That you try the free period in a family plan and then decide if you are still subscribed or not.

I thought that I would regret it and that it would be too expensive. Nothing was expensive, it was more expensive for Apple violate some patents. Returning to the subject, I listen to the same one, which I thought would be a problem for this service, but now I also change sometimes for other artists that I knew or not, for lists, for the Radio and much more. This is not a free buffet, you don't have to eat it all because you've already paid, here you just have to enjoy your music and not worry about anything else. Really, try it if you like music because you are going to love this service.
