1. Pricing states that Apple Music allows access to all Apple music for $9.99 monthly:
- Does this give me download rights to music I listen to via Apple Music?
- Am I still required to purchase the songs/albums for download rights?
1.1 It's basically a streaming service, but you can download music to listen to online on that device. You can't move the songs to another device, burn them to a CD, etc. If you stop your subscription you lose access to the items. You are renting them, not buying them.
1.2 If you want to be able to keep the songs permanently, burn them to CDs, or transfer them to your iPod you will have to purchase them as you did before.
2. iCloud storage comes with Apple Music as part of the fee of $9.99. Since I already have the Apple 1TB storage plan at $19.99 monthly does that mean:
- I will be refunded $10.00 monthly?
- Will my overall iCloud storage plan pricing change to $9.99 monthly vs the $19.99?
- Will I be billed separately for both?
'iCould storage comes with Apple music....' - where did you get that idea? Apple's documentation is far from helpful, but nothing I've seen suggests that Apple Music - a fee payed for unlimited rental of songs - has anything at all to do with iCloud storage which is for your documents and synced data such as calendars and contacts. So, 1. No; 2. No; 3. Yes. (unless you can find a Help document which suggests otherwise).
