How to publish classical music to Apple Music & iTunes

I am trying to self-publish classical music I recorded to Apple Music & iTunes but with no success.

I tried doing it with DistroKid but they do not support publishing classical music genre to Apple Music & iTunes, unfortunately.

Is there a way for me to do it elsewhere?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2

Some songs not downloading in lossless quality in Apple Music for iPhone I just noticed that some of the songs that I downloaded in my library aren't downloaded in lossless quality even though I have lossless downloads turned on. When I erase these songs from my library and stream them using internet they play in lossless quality, and the difference when listening to them is pretty noticeable. I've tried downloading these songs again after deleting them and being able to stream them with lossless audio, but they downloaded in bad quality again. Why is this happening? (In the first picture, a downloaded song, the lossless badge is missing. In the second pictured, the same song being streamed with wi-fi, showing the lossless badge)

Tesla Apple Music integration In the last Tesla software update, Apple Music integration has been added. However explicit content cannot be played although I have it allowed on every device of mine and even on Apple Music website. Anyone has any idea how to toggle explicit content filtering off?

Siri subscribed me to Apple Music on her own Hey, I was asking Siri for an artist from my library the other day. She played a song from the artist I didn’t know. After some trails, I realized she just subscribed to Apple Music instead of going through my media library. How do I get off Apple Music altogether? I have iTunes Match and I buy CDs and individual files. That’s how I like my music.

Kings String,

If you want to publish through Apple, you may wish to try a different aggregator. See information here:

iTunes - Working with iTunes - Sell Your Content - Music Provider: FAQs - Apple (PH)

You can also check out other outlets that are known to be well-tuned to independent artists, such as Bandcamp.com or Sundcloud.com.
