About Apple Music

Apple Music is a leading music streaming service that offers a sleek user interface, lossless audio, and excellent music curation. Like Spotify, Apple Music is subscription-based and has an enormous library of over 100 million songs.

The platform also features offline listening, the ability to collect all your music in one location (including CD-ripped tracks), live radio stations, and Siri integration. Also, you can access all your music, whether purchased from iTunes or downloaded from the internet.

However, Apple Music's lack of a free option and separate apps for audiobooks and podcasts have hindered its adoption. Despite this, the platform boasts over 100 million songs, a curated radio station called Apple Music 1, Siri compatibility, video content, lyrics, a 24-hour music video channel, and support for numerous devices, including the Apple Watch.

Apple has also added Dolby Atmos support and lossless audio at no additional cost. With customized playlists and radio stations based on your music preferences, you can stream or download Apple Music content for offline playing.

Additionally, the platform is compatible with your iCloud music library, allowing you to combine all your purchased iTunes songs in one location.

Apple Music Pricing

Let's talk about Apple Music pricing before we explore how to get it for free. When you sign up for a free trial, Apple Music is completely free for one month. This free one-month trial gives you unlimited access to the entire Apple Music library. You can also enjoy unlimited skips for Apple Music radio stations, download songs for offline listening, and receive personalized suggestions.

After the Apple Music free trial, there are three different plans to choose from. The individual plan costs $10.99 per month, while the Family plan is $16.99 per month and can be shared with up to six people. The Student plan is the third option, priced at $5.99 monthly.

If you prefer to access Apple Music through voice commands and Siri, you can subscribe to the Voice plan for $4.99 monthly. For more information on Apple Music subscription plans and pricing, see how much Apple Music is.
