Apple<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The Apple Music Voice Plan offers subscribers access to the service’s catalog of 90 million songs; tens of thousands of playlists, including hundreds of brand new mood and activity playlists, personalized mixes, and genre stations; as well as the award-winning Apple Music Radio — all through Siri for just $4.99 per month.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Apple Music Voice Plan subscribers will get a customized in-app experience with suggestions based on the listener’s music preferences and a queue of recently played music through Siri. Within the app there will also be a dedicated section called “Just Ask Siri” where subscribers can learn tips to optimize Siri for Apple Music.<\/p>\n

For access to Apple Music’s premium offerings, including Spatial Audio and Lossless Audio, Lyrics, Music Videos, and more, subscribers can easily switch to Apple Music’s individual plan for $9.99 per month or family plan with up to six accounts for $14.99 per month at any time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

so if you have the Voice Plan the Music app will show you a list of things you can ask Siri to play, but no play button lol!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

John Gruber<\/a>:<\/p>\n

This plan struck me as weird when it was announced during the keynote, but it makes sense for the way many people use Apple Music: by just asking Siri to play whatever<\/em>, where “whatever” is a particular song, a particular artist, or a particular mood.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Amazon Music has a $4\/month Echo plan<\/a> that is very similar, but Amazon’s Echo plan is limited to one single Echo device or Fire TV.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
