Hi all..

I'm aware of the 90-day lock-in u can use multiple devices with same Apple ID, but once done, their locked to that device, however it only applies to purchases, downloading etc..

From a technical standpoint why are u locked in once u enable icloud library ?

Because by this stage you are not downloading anything, u'r just enabling a service...

Is the reason behind this to comply with copyright holders so u cannot "stream" music ?

Ideally, if it only affect downloads and purchases, wouldn't it have been better to implement this when u try and make music available offline, because this is a download, and would comply with Apple's support pages.
