Beats Music putting a hold on new users, but doubles trial Length

Beats Music Service Issues explained

Seems everyone is out to at least try Beats Music. It was only yesterday that the new streaming / curation service was announced and unleashed across multiple platforms, but now it seems they weren’t ready for the lime light that it would bring. In a recent blog post put up only 7 hours ago, we find out that there are some issues. CEO Ian C. Rogers lets everyone know what is happening:

Due to the extremely high volume of interest in our service some users are experiencing issues. Most people are unaffected but our priority is to give everyone a great experience. We prepared for issues like these, have a plan, and are going to hold off on letting more people in while we put this plan in action.

The plan of action is this, if you haven’t yet pulled the trigger and registered to use Beats Music, you are out of luck, for now. They will be holding back those new registrations for the time being and ship you an email to let you through the gates when it is time. For all you curious people out there that registered yesterday and in on trying out the new service, you guys will be getting an additional 7 days on top of your 7 day free trial. For the mathematically challenged, that means your trial will be 14 days long before you have to pony up the $10 for a monthly subscription.

That still leaves the users that did a little name claiming prior to launch that haven’t signed up and in yet. You are still fine, Beats Music is holding your name for you, but you will probably get shifted to the waiting list if you jump on board now.

Anyone out there not tried out Beats Music yet? Apparently it is a “thing” that I missed out on.
