I am unable to play radio stations. Apple Music join screen pops up and I decline and it goes away but the same thing happens when I select another radio station

Apple has decided to make us pay for the use of iTunes Radio now. That's why the nag screen for Apple music keeps coming up.

I also lost all of my custom radio stations I setup over years. I've bought tons of music from iTunes for over a decade. Now they want us to pay for Radio?

I'm going back to Pandora for music. I'm thinking of switching to Android.

Apple can go screw themselves.
