Hi all,
I have been testing the new Apple Music app for Windows as a potential replacement for iTunes. What I am seeing is that there is a lot of old iTunes functionality which simply doesn't seem to exist in Apple Music for Windows:
* iTunes for Windows lets you import non-Apple music formats and it will convert them. For example, I bring WMA files over from Windows Media Player and import them; iTunes converts them into MP4 files. Apple Music doesn't seem to support this.
* iTunes for Windows lets you rip CDs. I see no option for this in Apple Music for Windows.
* iTunes for Windows has Home Sharing, so you can access your iTunes library from an Apple TV and play music, videos, etc. I see no similar option in Apple Music for Windows (presumably not in Apple TV for Windows, either).
I'm sure there are other things missing, but these are the features I use daily in iTunes for Windows.
Am I missing something, or are these features really not present in Apple Music for Windows?
