Cider VS iTheme

I looked into swapping to Apple Music before but couldn't find a way to play lossless music on Linux making swapping pointless. Apparently[0] decryption for lossless isn't supported for 3rd party clients.

Anyone know of a way around this?

It's basically a open source frontend for Apple Music that works on Linux and Windows. It's what I use to listen to my Apple Music songs on Linux, and it's amazing.

Hey, I’ve hade the problem for a long and I thankfully found a amazing 3rd party solution. It’s called Cider and you can find it here. Cider I hope this satisfies you :)

Are there any alternatives to the Music.app for MacOS, similar to Cider for Windows?

I would recommend Cider: https://cider.sh/

If you’re on windows. check this out. It’s a beautiful design and works just as good as you’d expect it to

apple music will do up to 192khz 24bit on iPhone and the interface is pretty nice, you can listen at spotify quality (320kbps?) on pc with Cinder which also has a pretty good interface

I agree. For now, try this: https://cider.sh

I know Cider is talked about a lot here but honestly, its defiantly the best way to listen to AM on windows, and even Mac sometimes. Even know it looks really good, thanks to yazninja for this beautiful theme, I also never run into any bugs. I'd go as far as to say I experience more bugs on the IOS app than this. There are some features that iTunes and the IOS app do that this can't but that's a limitation by Apple, the work that's done on Cider given what Apple provides to us is quite amazing indeed, great work indeed by the Cider devs, check them out if you can.
