And here I thought it was just me. I really like Dolby Atmos in their airpods, and it seems that it only works with Apple Music. But Apple Music just doesn't click with me.

- deergomoo 3y agoIt wouldn’t surprise me if Apple Music on iOS was in a similar boat to the Mac version (which is just the crusty old iTunes codebase with a lick of red paint). It feels very much like it’s still the same old app built for the time when any music you’d be playing was locally downloaded, but with streaming haphazardly retrofitted. It’s pretty sluggish even with a flawless connection, but if you’re somewhere spotty like on a train it becomes basically unusable. Even for stuff you have downloaded for offline playback, it seems like it will try to stream it instead if there is any network connection at all, regardless of how bad it is.
