Sep 01, 2017 NONE virtual DJ software can play Apple Music. “These music you get from the music streaming service are essentially “rented” instead of “owned”.” That’s why you can only play music you purchased not the music in your library which you just downloaded. How to mix Apple Music with Virtual DJ Virtual DJ is an audio-mixing software that mimics real disc jockey equipment. Use Virtual DJ to import MP3 songs and combine sounds with multi-layered tracks.

Just a thought, but since when haven you known Apple to do anything that doesn’t make them money, like allowing someone to stream free music for public use (i.e. inside DJ software)? Besides, that decision is not only up to Apple I think, it would be up to the owners of the rights.
And the only real advantage I can see, imho, of having a streaming service at your disposal while on a gig, is to be able to play that rare request that you don’t have in your collection. As I said in another post, how important does that request have to be to warrant something extensive as an integrated streaming service in DJ software?
I use iTunes to organize my Music collection. I avoided iTunes Match, cause Traktor would be confused, when files get replaced. Cue points, beat griding all lost. The new Apple Music puts all your music in the cloud and acts like iTunes Match. Should I and digital DJs avoid Apple Music or will it leave my Music MP3 collection alone?
I’ve tried. Apple Music files have an obnoxious level of DRM protection. Not only can’t you use these files in Traktor, the new iTunes update is trying to stop me from transferring my MPEG files from my laptop to my iPad (I do a small weekly practice gig with my iPad). Not to mention that Apple Music erased said files from my iPad when it first installed. This whole thing is a nasty freakin’ disaster, and will not be anything worthwhile (unlike Spotify) until (my guess would be) September 30, when you have to start paying for the privilege. Just. Don’t. Do. It.
Apple music works excellent for what it is advertised: A STREAMING MUSIC SERVICE
It is not meant (and they actually say this on their website!): – to be stored locally – to be used without paying for songs forever – to be played live through DJ software (their EULA actually says so!) – to be used as a DJ pool (their EULA forbids it)
Actually with Spotify IT IS THE SAME. Just because you can stream music in djay or djay pro does not mean it is legal to do so openly. Actually djay themselves answered in a blog post that it is meant “for DJs at home to practice and experience songs” as the Spotify EULA and contract you enter when using the service clearly forbids you to play this songs live for an audience.
So I do not get the uproar, it clearly works as designed and as advertised. And it did not do anything “miraculously” to my existing collection, all my own files (that I legally purchased or ripped of my own CDs/vinyl) are safe and untouched after activating it, as it HAS NOTHING TO DO with iTunes Match, which I totally agree is total bogus.
I’m sorry for having misused this thread about the probability, if streaming to dj-software will be possible with AppleMusic.
I think that while we are talking here, strategic decisions are made in the background. I think there will be a sort of implementation of Apple-Music in one or more (amateur) dj-programs like Spotify with djay.
That is my personal opinion.
