It's right after the "Show Apple Music Features" checkbox. On an iOS device, go into Settings, Music. Make sure that when you turn it off, you press OK in the Preferences window on your Mac or back out of Settings on an iOS device before turning it back on. This will ensure that it takes and does a proper rebuild/reset when re-enabling it. Later...
