I chatted online with apple support. The guy actually read this thread and said he would escalate the issue. He also wanted me to downgrade from the public beta to 9.0.1 to make sure that wasn't the issue, although he did acknowledge that users on this thread were reporting it on 9.0.1. I'll go ahead and play along, just to make sure the issue is escalated.
Got a tip for us?

I hope they read it because I specifically provided the link to this thread to them as proof.
At the risk of stating the obvious, the apple music issue only occurs when I am streaming music that isn't on my phone. I noticed this morning that if the radio is playing a song I have locally, it plays smoothly, but if its something else it plays for 10-15 seconds then pauses for 30-45 seconds and repeats that cycle (more or less). And when I tried to play music from my library that I have in itunes match, but not on my device, it takes forever to download.
The difference between apple support and ATT support is night and day, I must add.
FWIW the last response I got from @ATTcares: "It looks like Apple is having issues, it is not just with us, and not just LTE. I am seeing reports of it not working online from the PC and other carriers. I am still researching a solution, I apologies for inconvenience. ^ManuelE"
Why they hire people to represent them that can't type proper English is beyond me.

You can say the same about every other major company out there, especially ***** Comcast/Xfinity.
I am having the same issues. 6s+ with 9.1PB2. I thought it was a SIM issue and called AT&T. I'm 40min outside of Chicago.

Not sure how this can be an apple problem when only AT&T customers are having issues?
I thought I was the only one with this problem!!!! It would usually take a few minutes to a few seconds to update apps, now it's impossible to update over LTE because it's just so slow. Same thing with Apple Music. I actually had to stop using it, it got to the point where I had to wait minutes for one song to load. Yet, youtube loads instantly
I avoid downloading apps over cellular. My wife does it all the time and is constantly going over her data.
I updated to 9.0.2 and now I have no service where I'm at. Had service right before I updated. Starting to get really pissed at Apple.
