I currently have an iMac, iPhone and Macbook Air which I use regularly. I have also just completed fresh installs of El Capitan on both machines and to make things nice and easy I also reset my iPhone so that was a fresh install also.
Before I drag back my 150 albums into iTunes I thought I would try and get my head around the apple music.
Both my wife and son have iPhones and all have access to another iMac. We have family sharing enabled on all the accounts with myself as the administrator.
Given that the family plan of Apple Music is 14.99, this may be a cheaper option for us as a family, especially as my son wants all the latest albums etc and the wife can go through a few also.
So my question is, would it be far better for me to just archive my current music collection and file away on an old drive and start a complete fresh with Apple Music, only adding to my music the albums I want and the rest of the family can do the same. I see a lot of people with issues of merging etc and feel that if this is the way forward then I may as well just add the albums I already had onto my music.
Hope I am understanding this right. Any advice would be very useful. TIA
