I want to know if anyone else faces this issue.
Whenever I turn on/off VPN (I use the same country) Music stops paying online songs. I have to re-start Music app to play song.
Does anyone faces such issue?

A bit annoying.
 
You're interrupting the connection to the internet when you do this.

In that case, ANYTHING that's "streaming" is going to be momentarily stopped and restarted.

When I switch on/off my own VPN, the same thing happens.

It is... what it is.
 
So it can't automatically try to re-connect (or restart) using some parameter like session id?
I'm not a developer, but is it impossible to implement something like this or some kind of protection? Considering you are paid user and should be able to listen song regardless your IP/session change.
 
I use free streaming services (such as used to be with the old "iTunes radio tuner").

I use either a modified copy of iTunes (which will work on Sequoia), or, the little app called "Radiola".

For either of these, switching the VPN on/off will break the connection, and it will have to be re-opened "manually".

I've gotten used to it. Sometimes you just have to do, what you have to do.
