The Verdict: Should you pay for Apple Music when the free trial ends?<article>

We’re a little over a week into the free three-month trial of Apple Music, and the Macworld staff is more or less dancing in the street. We don’t love everything about Apple’s new streaming service, but even though most of us were already subscribed to a competing service that we pay our own hard-earned dollars for, Apple Music and its Beats 1 siren song are tempting us to switch, and it sounds like our current services are about to lose a few customers.</p><p>
Music is personal, and your mileage may vary. If you tend to do most listening on the desktop rather than on your iPhone, for example, Apple Music requires iTunes 12.2, but some users have suffered corrupted libraries or other headaches. Other services like Rdio, Spotify, and Pandora offer web players—you could find yourself avoiding iTunes for weeks at a time. And of course if you need cross-platform support, Apple Music may not be your best choice right now. It’s coming to Android this fall, but the other services are already there, plus they support platforms Apple Music probably never will, like the Roku set-top box, the Chromecast, and Android Auto.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2945353/the-verdict-should-you-pay-for-apple-music-when-the-free-trial-ends.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
