How much does Apple Music cost? StandaloneĪpple Music is free for three months when you sign up to the free trial, after which there are three plans available, with a fourth plan coming. The streaming service also offers up recommendations tailored to your interests, internet radio (in the form of the Apple Music 1 (formerly Beats 1) radio station among others), the ability to save music to your device for offline listening, expert-curated playlists, integration with the Siri assistant on iOS devices and features like Lyrics view. The Apple Music service not only lets you stream on-demand any track from the iTunes catalogue but also access all your music in one place on all of your devices, whether purchased from iTunes, copied from a CD, or downloaded from the web. Apple Music launched in 2015, following Apple's acquisition of Beats Electronics in 2014 that included the now-discontinued Beats Music subscription service.
