I'm still waiting on BASIC information, like can it play my offline music and iTunes purchases like the iPhone version or is it subscription streaming music only?
There is an article from The Verge that seems to conflate app users with service subscribers, but that could be justified if it doesn't support offline use. I don't know what to think:

Any newer news? Since announcement, all I've heard was "this Fall" with no additional details.
I assume they still want to sell iTunes tracks/albums and iTunes Match subscriptions but they've been just fine withholding that from other platforms in the past. I just want my ALAC iTunes library on my future Android device with iTunes Match for my other purchases and downloads.

TheVerge said:Where Apple Music users on Apple devices can listen free to radio stations such as BeatsOne with limited skips, Android users of the service have no free tier, and must be paid subscribers to listen to music.
