Everyone's experience will vary, but what has been suggested to me so far from Apple Music has been very relevant to my tastes. I definitely don't feel like I'm being pushed content to satisfy their business partners -- to the extent that every label and artist on the service is a "business partner."
Of course, Beats One is going to be more mainstream -- it aims to be a radio station in very much the traditional model, complete with top twenty segments -- but I've even found that station interesting at times, discovering some Nigerian music, for instance.
Yesterday I was suggested a mix of Autechre and Squarepusher to help me get through my afternoon's work -- which it actually did. The other day I was suggested the Beach Boys Smile sessions and over a hundred Smashing Pumpkins B-sides -- so, there's a lot of variety and it all feels relevant to me. I'm not getting Taylor Swift thrust on me, and so far I don't get the sense that corporate partners have some quota that I'm there to fill.
