Downloaded an album. It says downloaded but it’s not downloaded.

What goes on ? There’s lots of other albums that I have the same problem with.

Interesting. Just come to the end of a free six months of Deezer and was going for the three month trial of apple music next. Hopefully not a common problem

2 different phones and 2 different Sims have had similar problems. I think it must be due to the apple cloud being confused by CDs I’ve loaded and stuff I’m streaming.

I’ve also found that those two don’t play nicely but I’m stuck with Apple as I have all my old CDs ripped to it. It seems OK with stuff I’ve downloaded through subscription but my older albums that were originally ripped from CD sporadically won’t play. No ever found help on the interwebs either.

Always dodged iTunes other than for films so I’m not going to have that problem.  On day one of trying apple music it appears that I can not cast from my phone nor can I set it as my default music player in Google assistant.  It’s looking a pretty poor option already
