I bought the mini in november 2014 and I loved it on ios 7, I didn't know 8 is so vista, plus, I can't bring it back after a year.
Still no audiobook chapter titles since iOS 6 
Looks like the Music app is improving in the right direction with each beta release.
But, the iBooks/audiobooks app still does not show the chapter titles in audiobooks. Not even the one bought from iTunes. If people are listening to an audiobook they should see something like, A Ghost in Winterfell, not Track 46. This has been a problem since iOS 7 and continues to exude an unprofessional feel to the product.

iOS 8.4 Beta 3: Changes and Bug Fixes
Beta 3 was looking so good until I saw this: every artist now has no albums, I tried a restart but it did not work. I did OTA from 8.3 to beta 1, 2 and 3.
Never mind, I turned on and off this toggle and now everything is fixed.

Playlists on iPad in landscape are now split screen, showing the artwork on the right and the list on the right. Still, artwork only shows a gear on smart playlists, where it used to use the first piece of album art in the playlist. I hate this, because that worked fine for me and I really don't wanna have to go in and add artwork to all my Smart Playlists.
Individual track indicators that song is stored local.
And 'All Music' on device toggle in settings.app works now. Will show music on device vs a blank library.
I've had the track indicators since beta 1...
It's definitely broken in betas 3 and 4 but this was working just fine for me on 8.3.
All my chapter titles displayed fine.
The estimate download time for updates still ridiculous...
40min, after 5 seconds 7min, then 2min, then 4min, then 7min again, then 5min (all this steps never at right time of course).

Well it was buggy then, cause I had no indication tracks were local.
If I did a full album, it would show on the album art, but not tracks.
How about music over airplay and being able to select to play an album from now playing?
Edit; Music over AirPlay works, and tapping on the album artwork when you’ve tapped on the “…” option lets you switch. Nailed it.

Is the recently added working for anyone? Mine seems to be stuck on the album that was uploaded last on beta 2.
My update downloaded on both of my devices in under 5 minutes. Unless Apple's servers are slammed right now, it could just be your internet speed.
No problems here, I was even using the beta when I got my Watch in.
This has happened to me a few times on different releases of iOS 8 on both my iPad and iPhone. Quite annoying. Usually a reboot fixes the issue. I have not had it happen in a long time though.
Lyrics are back in business!
yes, they´re back but the formatting is all wrong.
Also, in public beta 1 i had a problem were in the control center i clicked on the name of the song so it would take me directly to the music app it wouldn´t do anything.
Now that is fixed
That bug has existed in many versions of iOS 8.x. If I could repro I'd report it. Speaking of a bug, I don't know it's my phone or iOS: instead of the upside screen bug I still have the landscape bug.
