Q: iMusic not on blue sound?

Hello

 

I have a bluesound installation (Powernode2) which plays the music I have bought or riped an stored on iPad or iPhone very nicely.

But it does not play the music I have downloaded from iMusic?

May be due to digital right management?

Any other solution then switching to Qobuz or Spotiy?

 

Thanks

Waltmat

    There's no iMusic.

    Apple Music is DRMed.

    Hi Ckuan

     

    Thanks for reply

     

    Ok, not iMusic but "Apple Music"

     

    But nevertheless: why can I not play the songs I have downloaded from Apple Music on my computers, pads or phones over the bluesound app?

     

    I do have a normal AppleMusic account and suppscription is active

     

    Thanks

    You can with all your mobile devices by using the built-in Music app.

    And for computers, you use iTunes.

    Bluesound does not support AppleMusic up to now; in contrast to Sonos

     

    with the BluesoundApp over WLAN you can play music from iTunes which you have bought or which you have ripped but not which you have only downloaded from AppleMusic (drobably due to DRM)

     

    what is possible with the BluesoundApp is playing music from AppleMusic over a bluetooth connection
