Moreover, there is an additional news poured by Eddy Cue on Twitter about the song limit on Apple Music. Apple's Senior Vice President explained that iTunes Music and Apple Music works in a similar manner in terms of matching, recognition and uploading song processes, so there is no need for users to subscribe to both services to get all of the features.

In the current version of iOS, Apple is said to put the song library at the same mark of 25,000 as that of iTunes Music. However, Cue further said that with the arrival of the iOS 9, works in progress to raise that mark to a 100,000. This will not only increase the number of songs in library but users get to have additional features that come with it. Developers who are currently on the iOS 9 beta will also be forwarded the service so its going to be a good day for all. More this will be covered as the news arrives, stay tuned.
