I use Qobuz for home streaming, but recently started an Apple Music trial. I don’t believe that Aurender’s Conductor will stream Apple Music. I’ve been using Apple in the car, while working out and walking the dog. I don’t drive much, but other uses amount to two to three hours per day, which is more than I listen to my home system. Much of my listening on Apple consists of more pop music and lately, lots of Korean music. I have an interest in a new artist, BiBi, who has many styles from rap to ballads and everything between. What Apple seems to be good at is tagging other music to the end of my Korean playlist, which exposes me to other artists that I haven’t heard. I have another playlist with Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo. Again, I get a number of alternative artist. I must admit that I don’t listen to much Ella Fitzgerald on Apple, because I don’t want to relax while working out. Apple claims that they have high resolution streaming and it does sound good on Apple EarPods. BTW.. The watch with cell service is a great way to listen and leave the phone at home. I have been a Garmin Fenix owner for years, but for walking, running, indoor treadmill and elliptical, the new Apple Watch Ultra is amazing and the GPS is great in high resolution mode. In the gym I use a Polar 10 chest heart rate monitor which connects to the watch and the gym equipment and allows me to train to my heart rate. This is a great way to workout for those of us that were born when analog computers were cutting edge.
