10 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do With Apple Music

10. Buy It Cheaper Abroad

The last in this list is possibly the most unusual, and it's also the most interesting (aren't you glad you stayed until the end?)

Apple Music aspires to be a worldwide streaming service, and attempts to cater for a global audience; but one thing that has to be addressed when supplying music streams to over 100 countries is that a country's GDP can mean that the $9.99 price tag that comes with an Individual subscription to Apple Music will not go down well in India, for example. Which is why, in India, Apple Music is $2 a month. The website Quartz has taken note of the over conversion rates: In Brazil, Indonesia, and Thailand, it’s $5 and $7; in Hong Kong, $6 and $10; and in Singapore, $7.50 and $11 (in US dollars). 

The reason for this, one could speculate, is that Apple makes the most of its money form its hardware: iPhones, iPads and Macs. By offering a new, cheap service for something already available abroad, while keeping the price of its smartphones and laptops the same, Apple could be hoping to boost sales in countries outside of the west.

But, if you're really desperate for Apple Music at a bargain, and a change of scenery, India might be your next holiday destination.
