I’m just going to say it… it was a stupid feature to “announce” the way they did. It should have been a bullet point mentioned in passing at WWDC… assuming they had anything at all about the Apple Music APIs to mention. This isn’t something enough people care enough about to generate hype or growth, releasing it out on its own just allowed them to draw attention in isolation which has cast it in a less than ideal light due to its shortcomings. If they new (and they obviously did) that it was supported in such a statistically limited (percentage wise) subset when compared to their overall customer base’s listening habits… then making any fuss at all was kind of stupid. They now have the unforced error of having high value customers buying their most expensive products asking uncomfortable questions like “why did you sell me $1000 headphones that don’t support your best stuff?”
