Agreed, this is crazy. What are users of Primephone supposed to do for the next 6 months? Listen to hip-hop? And that’s just a tentative timeline.

  They gave a 6 month free subscription to Apple Music. I was one of the Primephonic subscribers. I’m really bummed about this as I don’t like Apple Music (and I even work for Apple!), prefer Spotify for “regular” music, and want my classical to have a proper focus and giant catalog. The major streamers just are so basic when it comes to classical, in selection, discovery, playlists, etc. I don’t want pop classical, I want the good obscure stuff. Sad day as a user… Update: I didn’t see the part where there’s going to be a new dedicated app. That makes me feel better in the long run. That wasn’t so clear from the email that Primephonic sent this morning.

    Given the delay on basic and simple features between WWDC and iOS releases; I find it hard to believe they’ll launch a completely new music experience app in 6 months.

      It seems very plausible that it'd be the Primophonic app, just rebranded into looking first-party Apple. Just like what happened with Workflow becoming Shortcuts a few years ago.

  It seems really stupid as they will lose those customers and some will refuse to come back on principal based on being treated like chattel by Apple.
