If you’re a wannabe Apple Music customer, but currently running the iOS 9 beta, have no fear — since Eddy Cue has confirmed via Twitter that a new beta seed is on the way, offering compatibility with Apple’s newly-launched streaming music service.
Cue didn’t give a precise timeframe, but did note that it would be, “early next week.” Apple’s most recent iOS 9 beta on June 23. Since the company typically releases new beta seeds at fortnightly intervals, it would make sense if the next one arrives next Tuesday.
Cue also spent a bit of time answering user questions about Apple Music on Twitter, revealing how users can “turn off auto-renew anytime easily online” to prevent being charged after the free trial ends (not that this is what Apple is hoping for, of course) and that the service’s bit rate depends on whether users are streaming on WiFi or cellular.
As much as we’re digging Apple Music, we’ve got to say that we’re also loving Eddy Cue’s newfound Q&A availability on Twitter. Long may it continue!

Clearly ‘that’ shirt has made him more approachable.
