Why? I think Microsoft "needs" to go back to the Win7 UI, or better yet just open-source their OS and shut down their company, but that's not going to happen because they don't agree with me.
>Not everybody wants Apple Music and not everybody wants to buy music from Apple.
So what? If you don't like having to buy all your music from Apple, then don't buy an iPhone. There's plenty of other non-Apple devices out there. People who don't want Apple Music and don't want to buy from Apple are not target customers for Apple. They don't need you; they have plenty of suckers happy to pay them $$$$ for a phone and then more $$$ to buy all their music from iTunes.
>agreements with the record labels and/or wanting a monopoly on music
Android phones don't have this problem, and they have music stores too, plus you can just load your own music in MP3 or Ogg format easily. On many phones, you don't even have to use USB to transfer it, because you can just copy it from your PC to an SDcard which you can then insert in the phone.
Of course it's the monopoly angle: they want a monopoly on how Apple users get music, and they have one. If you don't like that, then don't buy an Apple.
