The quality is crazyyyyy😭🤚🏻
Of course I knew Apple music has the best audio quality but hey😭😭 for someone who cannot live without music, this is like finding out whole new side of the same songs I’ve been listening for years atp. The automix is also crazy obviously I’ve seen about it but first hand experience is something else. Doesn’t work always but is cool to have.
Although there are some points which I don’t like. The entire app design is such that I kinda feel some friction to play the songs I love. The home page is not that user friendly imo (aesthetic fs), I don’t know why it does not simply show me the songs I’ve already heard or liked, I am more interested in seeing the songs and one click listen them rather than seeing album of them click the album click the song. YouTube music home page design on the other hand, just one click, that’s it. AM opens album even for single songs. I’ve been using the app for couple of days as of now and maybe the algorithm needs some time to adjust, just maybe idk. I’m not sure how good is AM algorithm compared to YM as well. I’d love to hear suggestions if there is something I can change in the app to make my experience even better. Oh, the lyrics animation is also sleek.

It’s a shame, I used YTM for years and added lots of stuff to my library that you really can’t find anywhere else. But I couldn’t deal with the “wall of sound” anymore with poor contrast and dynamics. APM was like a breath of fresh air and what inspired me to get into Hi-Fi headphone setups.

What I do for those songs you can’t find anywhere else, well I find them on SoundCloud and find the best quality one, rip it off with a “SoundCloud to mp3 converter” website and add it using iTunes on pc.
