If you have your own CD's then they will upload to Apple Music where they would be available to you on all your devices. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Kelly Pierce Sent: Tuesday, February 20, 2018 8:59 AM To:

I used Apple Music within the first six months after its release. It had very little classic jazz recordings, except for the big names. There was virtually nothing from contemporary independent artists. I was better off ripping CD’s and loading them onto my iPhone and using services like Spotify

Hello Sieghard. I did not know that one could purchase an entire year of Apple Music, at once. If this is the case, then I will definitely be subscribing to it as I prefer an annual subscription to a monthly one. Okay, I'll look into it as HomePod is, for whatever reason, my preferred music

Hi Mark, I know there are a lot of replies to your message and I haven't read them. However, let me say this, you bought the HomePod and said you enjoy it a lot. Do yourself a favour and buy the Apple Music subscription, I believe if you prepay for the entire year it is cheaper than $9.99 a

Be careful what you wish for. The high quality sound on spotify is a bandwidth hog. For my 40 minute work commute, it eats up more than 100 MB of data. Of course, Spotify offers a lower quality setting that uses a lot less data. If you live in a big city and ride subways like me, the noise inside

My understanding is that you get higher quality audio with a paid subscription as well. I think they offer a trial if you wish to sample what they consider "high quality". -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Evan Reese Sent:

Well, as I said, I wouldn't mind the ads so much, but the sound quality on the app I installed was noticeably lower than that of Tune-In. Perhaps I am spoiled because I have Hope for Pandora on my laptop, and the sound quality of that is very good. The difference between the sound quality of my

I use the free version of Pandora with my Google Home. The sound on the Google Home is very good & the ads are few & far between. You can ask Pandora to play songs by a given artist but what you get is their idea of a radio station for that artist. Frequently I will hear one song by the

In order to get rid of the adds, you have to subscribe to a plan. For free, I can live with a 30 secodn add every now and then. Same goes for sound quality. I'm not enough of an audiophile to fuss over quality since I'm usually only running Pandora when working out or as background music while

Mark, I just compared the free Pandora with the free Spotify. I would say Spotify's quality is hands down better than Pandora. Yes, you get about a 30 second commercial every 30 minutes, but its free. -i just searched for Joni Mitchell and began listening. For free, you have to use "Shuffle

Mark, I can't answer your question about Pandora for iOS because I got the app for my iPad Mini and deleted it shortly thereafter. The sound quality was degraded, and I had to listen to advertising. I would have been willing to put up with one or the other, (although I would have prefered good
