Yep, I would also like to know this list. I have a feeling it's a BS statement.
It's not BS. Many of the songs he played in the first hour or I couldn't add to my library. I've stopped listening since so maybe he's playing mor stuff that is available now.
Appatently it's his thing to talk while the music is playing. But I do hope they tone down the "world wide. Always on." Showing up in the middle of songs.
It wouldn't be radio if the DJs and bumpers didn't play over half the song LOL
There's nothing wrong with Beats musical programming sounding similar to Radio 1, Radio 1 is musically one of the best stations going.
Haha, I have a feeling if Google or Samsung rolled out a live radio station that sounded just like BBC Radio 1 some people here would be knocking it as a ripoff. I'm not surprised it's similar to BBC Radio 1 since that's where Zane Lowe came from. But I have to laugh at some of the comments in my Twitter feed claiming Apple has reinvented radio. Really? Mimicking Radio 1 is reinventing radio? I can go to TuneIn right now and listen to Radio 1 whenever I want, 24/7.

Exactly, they could have bought Radio 1 for, say, $ 3 Bn. But I am glad they didn't.
Is there anything here that might interest a classical music nut like me? Operas? Chamber music? Renaissance? Monteverdi, Palestrina, Mozart; Schubert, Stravinsky, Shostakovich...?

I will love Apple Music subscription service. I do not understand why the media jumped on the wagon to promote internet radio station number 34,546. Which will try to be like Radio 1, but won't be. Unless they broadcast from the UK.

For premade radio stations there is one "Classical" station. As for the Music service I would say so, I just did a brief check and found Mozart, Debussy, Stravinsky, Vaughn Williams, etc. (so glad they have the Neville Marriner version of The Lark Ascending)
Great - I might try it then. But with 10 000 CDs of classical music, all ripped til ALAC already on my system, I probably have a better selection locally anyway.
BTW: The best Lark ascending is Hugh Bean/Adrian Boult on EMI (1967)

I'll have to try it, thanks. I'm afraid the Marriner/Brown version is the first one I heard though, so it may always be my best love.
I've been curious which countries are included in the over 100 countries worldwide for Beats 1, but I have been unable to find a list anywhere. Has anyone seen a list of the countries?

Who said Apple reinvented radio? Maybe improved upon it, I don't know as I haven't checked it out out. To me it sounds like what any FM Music Radio station is, other then this is world wide in 100 countries LIVE 24/7. These other music streaming services are in far less countries!!! You Fandroids just throw out a lot of garbage no one is saying other then other fandroids. At times it's quite laughable.

It's pretty hard to change that format. DJ talks, plays music, interviews guests.
Beats is just a start and if works they'll have localised radio stations, genre stations and so on. The idea is that if you like a song you can add it to a playlist.
Zane's stuff isn't always available to stream but I suppose they can't really limit.
Excellent work by Apple, try out Siri integration everybody. Compared to the abortion that was iTunes Radio this is utterly brilliant.

Wait somebody that only owns iOS devices is a fandroid? How does that work? And yes I am seeing posts in my Twitter feed slobbering all over Beats Radio as if Apple reinvented radio.

So, someone remind me, how is Beats 1 different from, say, BBC Radio 1?
No politically biassed news every hour.

I wonder if the BBC will sue Apple for copying the format...... /s

Getting an 'unable to start station' on everything except BBC news.
Odd that although Apple Music works fine in Hungary, there is no Beats 1 in the app. Anyone know where one can find the list of those 100 countries?
