<p>Apple Music Connect, a social interaction feature between artists and listeners that was a cornerstone of the Apple Music launch last summer, will be demoted in an iOS 10 overhaul (http://9to5mac.com/2016/05/04/apple-music-ios-10-revamp/) this fall. Apple Music Connect was designed as a major component (http://9to5mac.com/2015/05/13/apple-music-beats-based-streaming-service-to-have-ping-like-social-network-for-artists/) of the Apple Music service that would spur usage by allowing artists to share photos, videos, and audio while on tour in addition to allowing Apple Music listeners to comment and like posts. Instead, the feature has been lightly used in comparison to other Apple Music features, and some users have even discovered ways (http://www.macworld.com/article/2943254/turning-off-connect-makes-apple-music-better.html) to disable the Connect feature.</p>
