Apple Releases iOS 8.4 With Apple Music, Beats 1, and Revamped Music App

I'm incredibly fussy with music. Normally I hear a song on an ad or something, like it, and that's it. I rarely find new songs, but sitting and browsing Apple Music is totally different. I could browse for hours. It feels like suddenly there's tons of great music out there.

Can't remember when I was this excited about a new Apple product xD

Hey Apple, here's an idea: when you first launch the music app and go through the initial sign up stuff you should ask if people have playlists from other services that they'd like to import. I rarely used iTunes or the Music app so Apple Music has a very incomplete picture of my musical tastes. Not being able to import my Spotify playlists will be a deal breaker for me.

Those other services can make changes to break the import process causing people to say that the Apple music experience is horrible and broken.

It's just not going to happen.

Someone should know. I know technically how it's said to work - I'm interested in seeing the options in settings. I figure it's a binary thing. Do you want Apple Music or Match. The whole "complementary" thing is super confusing. Makes it sound like you might want both.

Interesting because I'm finding many albums missing in Apple Music that exist in Spotify. Mostly independent label stuff.

I listen mostly to Kpop and Mandopop, and one irritating thing about Spotify was their lack of Korean songs.

Different strokes for different people, I guess. What I don't miss won't hurt me. :p
 
Got 2 iPads and 2 iPhones to do 1 iPad (iPad 4) and 1 iPhone (iPhone 4S) are done and iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 are still on update requested

In an effort to condense the message board size, here are comments and questions most frequently submitted:
  1. Is Safari snappier?
  2. Is the WiFi bug fixed yet?
  3. Why should I download it when iOS 9 is already out in Beta?
  4. Steve Jobs wouldn't agree to this.
  5. My battery sucked after downloading.
  6. Get it together :apple:
  7. I hate it already.
  8. Where is the innovation?
  9. I'm never updating from iOS 6 until they fix *insert complain*
Please refer to the number from the list below in your post when complaining. Thank you!

10. its Ping in a different wrapper
 
I'm on iOS 8.3 (12F61). Google tells me that's the latest iOS 8.3 beta. However, I've got no beta profile (as far as I can see) installed. But I just can't update to 8.4 official..
 
I've been able to update to iOS 8.4 over the air via wifi took 8 min to finish. Apple music thus far is really simple to follow artists in initial setup.
 
Nothing has synced between my iPhone and iPad mini. My playlists etc. are only on my iPhone.

It's not that hard to sync a playlist. It should take no time at all. Apple doesn't have to actually sync the songs, just the metadata about what the playlist contains. It shouldn't even take 30 seconds, and it certainly shouldn't take 15 minutes (and counting). So, I'm already thinking I'll stick with Spotify.
 
I'm getting the 'Can not enable iCloud Music Library' issue - in Settings > Music when I try to turn it on, I've tried to both Merge and Replace my playlists (as I was using Spotify before, I only had a couple of albums on my phone, just stuff I'd bought on it) so I don't care about losing those playlists.

Any ideas on how to enable it so I can select some stuff to be available in My Music and be available offline?
