Wow, that’s weird, I bought some Beatles music from iTunes.

Ah, That’s because the Beatles did not allow their music to be on iTunes.

Hi Mary, I, too got a nice surprise when fiddling with Apple Music yesterday. Since this thread came up yesterday, I did a search on the Bach Brandenburg concertos from the Academy of St. Martin In The Fields, which I purchased on CD at Tower Records in Westwood back in 1994. I promptly added it to my library, then went looking for some of my favorite Mozart string quartets and found some, but I don't know if they match the recordings that I also bought at Tower.
I'm still very interested in what the new Apple Music service has to offer but will reserve judgment regarding going beyond the free trial. As some have already said, selection is hit and miss and I certainly won't use Siri for music searches. Siri's very handy for some things but downright stupid for others.
Oh yeah, and as a side note, I did a search and couldn't find ANY Beatles albums: not one. Hmmm.

- Well, Neil, don't give up. I found a classical piece I have been looking for for literally decades on iTunes today. In the store that is. I owned the album probably 40 or more years ago and lost it. It has never been available to my knowledge digitally. But today it popped up and I am a happy camper. So I think the classical stuff is there. It's just Siri can't deal with the names very well. That very piece that I purchased, Siri claims doesn't exist. Go figure. Typing and searching is my friend.

- Mary, I haven’t spent an enormous amount of time searching for Classical music, but it appears to me that Apple is much more into other kinds of music. Perhaps there are a lot of classical artists that don’t bother with putting their stuff on iTunes. That wouldn’t surprise me. I am sure I will find a good many things I like, but it will be interesting to discover if there is as much as I have found on Spotify, and even that is limited.

- I haven't tried classical music with the new iTunes, but I have always found that within iTunes, the display of classical music, even classical that I bought, is not very good. Maybe I am missing something. And if you try it on Amazon prime, if you have that service, it is horrible there too it seems nobody understands the classical listeners like a whole piece, not a single movement

- Wow! What a disappointment. Try asking Siri to play Beethoven symphony number 5. She plays the wrong one. Try asking her for Beethoven symphony number 9. She start somewhere half way through the last movement and try as I might, I have not gotten her to play any symphonies from the beginning.
- OK, there is likely something I am missing here. I know I can use my keyboard and search for things, but I thought Siri would be better at this. She is better with other music, but not classical. What am I missing, or is Apple so omnipotent that it things I would like to hear whatever it decides to play for me no matter what I ask for?
