If that music is on the iTunes store and the artist/publisher have agreed to be a part of the service I don't see why it wouldn't be possible.

On Mac, it's wonderful, but I'm guessing you're on Windows. There, it's honestly still a little rough. Outside of a complete rewrite, a great candidate for a sandboxed "AppX" application on the Windows Store.

Missing a time schedule in the OP. iOS 8.4 in 30 minutes, Apple Music in 90 minutes and Beats 1 in 150 minutes?
Can you already sign up for the trial or will I have to wait until the server crash?

I think there's an hour extra on all of those times.
Not sure bout that. My Music seems to be stuff youve already bought or stuff from the store that youve added to your library.
I think you need to search from the other tabs? Or may the search result from any tab brings up segmented results from both your library and apple music library?
well find out soon

If I don't have to install another shitty piece of buggy, constantly updating a crashing piece of software on my Mac, I'm all the better for it.
I'd rather have a web client so that my library comes with me even if I don't want to log into iTunes at work (where I use my developer ID).

Yeah server crash seems inevitable as with every major iOS update. I'm taking the wait-and-see approach.
There's a persistent search button at the top and it searches both your library and Apple music.

I'm still a little confused with the Apple Match part of the process. If you subscribe to Apple Music, will it match your iTunes library? Or do you have to purchase Apple Match separately.
If it's the former I am totally jumping ship from GPAAM.

if you don't have an Apple ID, sign up for one now.
a streaming radio service with no catch-up service, in 2015? Especially bad if they only have the one time zone, meaning we can't time shift for our own tastes without catchup, and no way to talk about what was on last night and go back to listen to it.

I work in an ad agency. Everyone uses the Spotify or Rdio web players. No one wants to deal with IT/HR to be able to install a bunch of hobby programs onto our work computers.
Additionally, Chromebooks are a solid, real sales, they've arrived, no longer "might be a thing" market. Web apps for Chromebooks.
i hope the answer to this is yes, as that would be a killer feature for my wife. In theory with Family Sharing, you'd just need a Japanese itunes account linked up with your main account, with you paying (to avoid paying in Yen). Although I've not tried connecting cross-regional itunes accounts yet (I have my and my kids but we all have UK accounts)
Will try tomorrow if nobody figures it out by then.

Only devices with iOS will work, such as an iPod Touch. (And watchOS/OSX too)
EDIT: Which is crazy because they advertise iPods on the Apple Music page, with a note at the bottom "Apple Music is not available on iPod nano and iPod shuffle."

I work at a university that is super strict about installing stuff and for some reason... Spotify is downloadable and installable on work computers.
My guess is they got soooo many requests to install that they just made an exception.
I tried iTunes recently and it wouldn't let me. So yes a web app would be nice. Unless I'm super blown away, I'll probably just go back to Spotify free tier after the 3 month trial. Work is where I listen to Spotify 90% of the time.
Does the iPod classic even have WiFi built-in?

If Apple Music has more K-Pop than Spotify my daughter will make us switch for that reason alone. I hope they don't.
This alone would dead Spotify in a heartbeat and I dead will be singing another tune about Apple. This might even convince me to get an iPhone.
I'm going to wait and see if the latest 8.3 jailbreak works with 8.4. Im still stuck on a jailbroken 6+ on 8.1.2. If it's not I'll just update to 8.3 and wait for the 8.4 jailbreak. I couldn't live without my tweaks and even tho im really excited for apple music i think i could get by without it for a bit.
Is the 3 month trial a permanent offer or is it only for a limited time?

How do you turn on gapless playback? That's a feature I love in Spotify and I don't see how to do it in iOS (checked Music settings and saw nothing)

Me too. Everyone uses Macs that have iTunes pre-installed ¯\_(ツ_/¯
Assuming you're using a Mac, working at a place that allows you to get the newest version of iTunes, and don't already have the computer set up to work with a corporate Apple ID, then sure, Apple Music with iTunes as a desktop player will work great.
For the rest of us, web players are the shit.
No. But one would assume you could do offline playlist transferring, like the Apple Watch can. It seems like a no-brainer for the iPod shuffle, but it's a no go.

Is K-Pop really that popular in Europe/NA? Just asking.

Would seem smarter if they sent out the updates a couple hours at least in advance, not one hour. Seems risky. Unless it's a small delta update or they're really trying to test out their servers.

To be expected, but a damned shame no less.
It's not.

Another thing I learnt in this thread, people are really into it? I guess if its in the NA iTunes store it should be available for streaming?

Not necessarily. The Beatles aren't available for streaming.
yeah. I have my fingers crossed they don't have any IP blocking - buying and downloading songs from the Japan itunes store works fine, but streaming may be different.
If this works, it may be enough to persuade my wife to get an iphone.
If it isn't in your local store, you may be able to open a Korean/Japanese account and use that. It'd cost you another parallel subscription but I think that could be a profitable niche for Apple - big J/Kpop fans would not consider that a big barrier.

They always seem to stagger their updates though. Not everyone will see the update immediately, is my guess.
This reads like someone that has never used iTunes.
Buggy? Constantly updating? Crashing? I don't know what you are using, but it sure as hell isn't iTunes 12.

I've been listening to Japanese and K-Pop music on Itunes Radio for over a year, so I hope that stuff is streamable.
Also are they gimping Itunes Radio at all? Anyone know?

I would say yes, it really did kind of jump it's way into popularity in 2007. For me, I have since jumped off the hallyu wave but I since I left, so much has happened and I want to catch up. It's hard searching through YouTube since so many new groups and artists have appeared by the dozens at a time and It hard to find to catch up to the newer songs over a somewhat of a years period from old groups that I'm a huge fan of.
K-Pop is all about the now and they don't, imo, have a service that curate it all into these Playlist with moods and discovery as well as other services do with American music etc. Kpop is huge for people who aren't in Korea or have access to their channels to get that music on demand so that would be a huge selling point for a lot of people.

I just want to be able to make smart playlists. Really hoping Apple allows us to have a little control over metadata like Google does.
Either way, I'm looking forward to trying it out.

Pretty sure it's also coming to the Netherlands today, why not?
They've said 100 countries but I don't think they've specified exactly what countries.
I'm pretty sure it is coming to most countries today.
As an Australian that is what I hope at least.

Yeah I started testing this family plan with a friend, as of now it charges my card since I made the "Family" so that might defer you but we all have Venmo so I guess it all depends on how close you are to your friends.
Although I don't see their purchases on my account yet...
