THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO APPLE MUSIC

When Apple finally did away with iTunes with the release of macOS Catalina in 2019, it replaced it instead with Music - which was iTunes, but with the movie, podcasting and syncing bits hived off into TV, Podcasts and Finder instead. While that's been great news in some ways - iTunes became an increasingly bloated mess - it's sown confusion in others, especially since Apple has shifted its focus away from simply enabling you to manage your personal music collection (including purchases bought from the built-in iTunes Store), and towards subscription-based streaming, with launch of Apple Music.

This can mean that despite the removal of the movie and podcasting elements from the old iTunes that the Music app for Mac still feels like it's trying to do too much and has too many options at times.

So over the next 13 pages we're going to pull the Music app apart and talk you through all its constituent pieces and help you achieve a greater understanding of what the app does, what it does well, and what it does occasionally very badly.

We'll also explore some other great ways to enjoy your music, and we'll take into account your other devices too. So sit back, pour yourself another drink and stick some tunes on - the Apple Music party is about to begin...

RIP. MIX. BURN
