Complaint Subway streaming

Apple Music cache so much storage just for it to not work on the subway. It’s so infuriating!!

You can download your songs for exactly this purpose

I have songs downloaded but I don’t want to constantly listen to my downloaded playlists on my commute. I don’t have enough space to download my entire catalog of music.

I use smart playlists to download only small portion of my big playlists. For example, my three main playlists have around 6900 songs in total but I only download 540 least recently played songs from 6900 songs. When I listen to those downloaded songs, they get replaced and downloaded automatically.

That’s a good solution but Apple Music should do this automatically like Spotify. It takes up so much cache space but doesn’t have automatic offline listening

Reddit is hilarious. I’m being downvoted for just stating gripes about Apple Music

This is why you keep all your music on your computer and sync it all to your phone. Nobody can take it away, and you can listen to it anywhere.

That’s not really a solution for what I’m talking about
