IT’S NEVER BEEN easier to enjoy all kinds of music on your Apple devices — whether you prefer to stream the latest chart–toppers on Apple Music, or just want to listen to an existing music library on the go.
Apple offers three main ways to do this: you can subscribe to the Apple Music streaming service (currently $10.99/month); subscribe to iTunes Match (currently $24.99/ year) and put your existing song collection online; and you can connect your iPhone or iPad to your Mac and sync your music collection either via a physical cable or over Wi–Fi. It’s that last option we’re going to look at here.
