I've been using Apple Classical Music and I have to say: It really is a great step forward. Much better than any other service I've been using to stream and collect classical music works. You can't use a regular search library for music with classical - it just doesn't work out well. You have to search very hard to find specific things that you want. With Apple Classical, it starts to change the game.

From the piece linked:

"Classical music is much more complex. While you may look for a specific piece of music or a favorite album, you often look to play a work, which could be a piano sonata, an opera, a string quartet, or a symphony. You won’t find any of them on the jukebox, and if you were to flip through a stack of records, their titles might or might not help you find what you want. For some album-length works, this isn’t complicated. If you want to play Glenn Gould’s recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, that’s easy to find. It takes up an entire album, and you will see a picture of Glenn Gould on the cover."

Hi everybody. Been a while. Had too much going on to pay attention to social media. But I'll slowly and hopefully be coming back again soon. 😃
