Amazon Music Unlimited – Currently there’s a special offer. 3 months for 99¢.

I bought a one-month subscription for Apple Music to see if I would like it, but found it disappointing. Classical music offerings are very limited.

A puzzle though – the return address of the email confirming my
Amazon Music Unlimited subscription was “Apple <no_reply@email.apple.com>”. Very odd…

And no, I don’t have an Apple email account.

I got in on the Amazon Music Unlimited deal last week to try out.

There is not as much Classical as one might want, but there is a good selection. Click Browse, the Playlists, and from that screen choose Curators. Deutsche Grammophon has a good selection of Classical playlists, and Steinway & Sons for, of course, Classical piano. Some of the playlists are 4+ hours of music.

Thanks Henry, that’s helpful.

I know that you have Apple HomePods, and I’d like to buy a pair of them – all reviews praise their audio quality. HomePods have built-in Bluetooth hardware, but, AFAIK, Apple doesn’t currently support music delivery to them via Bluetooth. So it seems that Apple Music via the Internet/WiFi is currently the only way to get music to the HomePods. Am I wrong about that?

Anyway, the lure of HomePods is what prompted me to give Apple Music a try. If I’m not satisfied with it, I won’t buy the HomePods.
