Why I don’t use Apple Music: Refreshing the bottom line of difficulty

Why I don’t use Apple Music: Refreshing the bottom line of difficulty
If I remember correctly, Apple Music service was officially launched in China three months ago. At that time, Apple offered a three-month free trial period, and only paying users could continue to use it after the trial period. Today, December 30, is exactly the end of the three-month period, and I have quietly canceled the automatic renewal option in the settings . I don’t deny that Apple Music is a very advanced music streaming media, but to be honest, I am more disappointed with it. When Apple Music first landed in China, Apple fans were all singing and dancing. Even a fan of Apple Music like me has an inexplicable liking for Apple Music because of my European and American fandom . When everyone was fed up with QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music, which are urban-rural-style apps, Apple Music is like a breeze, bringing advanced experience from Apple. The fresh interface, neat layout, and practical recommendations are all places that can attract users at a glance. More importantly, Apple Music can fully display the album cover when playing music, which is something that QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music, which are "short, ugly and poor", can't achieve . They only know how to fool you with private messages, notifications and music social circles all day long, and never really understand what music lovers like. In this way, Apple Music is really a white, rich and beautiful woman. However, China is a very strange market. Its strangeness lies in that no matter how deep your family background and how strong your financial resources are, as long as you dare to enter China, domestic manufacturers can always kill you in minutes with various rich Chinese characteristics. Apple Music is such a foreign product. Its interface is indeed more friendly and its song library resources may be more, but these cannot cover up its lack of localization.
(QQ Music’s lyrics display even provides Cantonese pronunciation labels, which is really scary when you think about it) It’s not that Apple Music’s functions are not good enough. But if you look at those domestic music apps, they are very good at displaying lyrics, identifying songs by listening to them, and broadcasting radio stations. The most shocking thing is that Cantonese songs actually have pronunciation labels. If there were barrages on the music playback interface, I really want to type a string of “66666666” on it. Not to mention that the playback speed of domestic music apps is very fast, Apple Music is so slow that you feel like you are listening to music with your life .
(QQ Music’s lyrics display even provides Cantonese pronunciation labels, which is really terrifying when you think about it) If Apple Music is just slow, I can still tolerate it. I don’t care if it has lyrics, song recognition and other functions. There are two other reasons that really "irritate" me. The first point is that Taylor Swift’s "1989" exclusive concert video was promised to be released on December 20th ? The entrance has been pushed in the "New Content" tab of Apple Music, but when I click in, I can’t even see Taylor Swift’s airport. Another interview content of Taylor Swift is also unavailable, so is this fictitious entrance going to be open until April Fools' Day? No matter how advanced you are, if you don’t show me Taylor Swift, I must shake it off.
(Connecting to a wireless network to play "offline" music has become the norm) Another reason is that after three months, Apple Music's offline music function still does not work properly ! So is Apple's software team dead? I often want to listen to music with Apple Music outdoors, but I find that all the offline music I downloaded has become available only online. I want to say that this is really a hindrance! Can't Apple even implement a normal and usable offline music? I don't believe it, unless the news reports tomorrow that the Apple Music team has been disbanded.
(I can no longer find the "Make content available offline" option that used to exist) Even more bizarrely, after updating to iOS 9.2, Apple Music's "Make content available offline" option mysteriously disappeared . Since then, I can no longer add music to my offline music library, and I have become fed up with Apple Music . I hope that the next one to disappear is the Apple Music software team. Thank you for repeatedly refreshing the bottom line of Apple Music's difficulty to use, you have done a great job. If it weren't for the above two reasons, I think I would still maintain a positive evaluation of Apple Music. But now it seems that this is impossible. I turned off the renewal option for Apple Music, and after the free trial period, I may never open the "Music" app again, even if it is free again.
