I think, it's great and it will probably make me switch from Spotify to Apple Music. Spotify is a complete shit show if it comes to classical. The search results are mostly useless and the lack of standardization in the naming of classical "songs" makes it very hard to find different performances of the same piece.

Also whether and in which meta data field you can find the composer, soloist, conductor, etc. is also quite random. They don't enforce any standards on the meta data they get from the labels and the labels don't seem to care, either.

From what I've seen in the Apple Music Classical app, the do a very good job in aggregating and cleaning up the meta data. I don't find the interface to be super intuitive, but it's good enough.

Spotify also mangles the audio quality to such a degree that often the same recording on YouTube has better quality than the Spotify one (which I pay for...).

I just hope that Apple can convince some of the missing labels which have been holding out (looking at you, Hyperion).
