I had some issues getting custom made Apple Music tracks added to playlists
to sync from my IPhone across to ITunes on the mac, but that's really the
only quirk I've found. Actually, it started working after a while. I think
it's server load. The one thing though I had to do is, I can't find a way
to manually resync playlists which have songs from Apple Music not in my
local library, nor in the cloud, that I'm only streaming. So, what I had to
do is, after adding them on I O S, as I can't find a way to go to the For
you section on the mac, then add something to a playlist. But on I O S, if
I do it, then the only way I so far have been successful even 3/4 of the
time only, is to command+Q, and quit ITunes, then come back in, and then
it'll update.
I suspect either 1, it's server load, or 2, it would! auto-refresh, but only
automatically after X amount of time. God knows what that amount would be.
I know it can't be changed, as if it could, I would a seen the option by
now, as thorough as I was looking at things, trust me! I'd say logically
though, I'd think maybe once an hour. If you want sooner, you gotta restart
ITunes to force it. Realize what I am saying isn't necessarily fact. It's
only what my observation is so far, so people like Shaf etc. don't come down
my throat. I'm only telling you what I've so far seen. If you think you
know better, then by all means, correct me. Do tell, as I'd be curious.
Chris.

standpoint
I created a custom station on my old iPhone for S, and the same one showed
up when I signed into my iPhone 5s. So it seems that custom stations are
moving across just fine. I don't yet have the new iTunes on my Mac. And I
haven't tried all the fancy stuff you're talking about otherwise, but custom
stations are sinking or whatever you call it

I have a mac and iphone that I've signed into here and since I'm usually
having wifi handy I wouldn't mind paying for this especially if I can
figure out how to add whole albums for streaming to my library. It looks
like this could replace several music apps once I can figure out how to
manage playlists and stations and things across devices. Certainly
impressed with sound quality and the fact that it has found everything I
could possibly want to listen to. Now I just need to figure out how to
make custom playlists and stations so I can do weird things like mix
Accept albums with Bach and bagpipe music and have it remember what I was
playing when I switch from one device to another because I bounce around
a lot. But certainly this might save me from having to keep track of large
collection of stuff once I can figure out the complexity! I certainly
don't have enough disk space or time to go and download all the stuff I
would listen to if it was handy to stream so I think this looks very good.
Big fat warning to anyone with a data cap though this will eat it for
lunch since 256kbps is what it streams at. I don't know if it has a lower
bandwidth option so keep the wifi handy!
