Nervous Unicorn 440 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I have an Apple Music account, so is it more beneficial for me to stream the song that way than purchase it? I don't think if I buy it I can still listen to it and have it count as playing on Apple Music... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem, I mean during the first week your purchase will probably count more than your streams but at least it's more than just the purchase alone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you please explain further about "after 30 minutes"? Thank you both! I'm not exactly sure how long the refund period is, but if you delete the song right after you buy it, you'll get your money back, so the sale for the single won't count. I believe the return period is 15 minutes, but wait 30 just in case. So, buy the single, and then just stream the song or whatever, then delete the purchased song 30 minutes later, and add the AM version to your itunes.

Can you please explain further about "after 30 minutes"? Thank you both! I believe so, when you go onto Apple Music on the song, then press '...' then press the '+', then press the cloud with the arrow on, I think that will count as streams. EDIT: I think he means if you delete the song within 30 mins of purchasing you will be automatically refunded and your sale won't count. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
