Why Can I No Longer Buy The Song I Ask Siri To Identify???

For years I could ask Siri, "what song is this?," and it would identify it and there was a "buy" button I could click to go buy the song. I have purchased dozens & dozens of songs and now it goes to iTunes, then flips to Apple Music without me doing anything.

Apple wants me to join a streaming service & refuses to show me the song to buy.

I have no desire to pay a monthly fee for streaming. Obviously Apple is aware of it, but are my days of having Siri do the work for me over? Wondering if I should delete the Music app to prevent this???

Looks like Apple fixed this. I tried on my old 7, and it works! Tried on my new 8 whatever and it also went back to allowing me to buy the song I hear. I have purchased hundreds that way, thank you Apple. To force your streaming on us as the only choice was poopie...
