This has never happened to me. I exclusively listen to music on my phone, and work every day on my Mac. I have never had the Music app open itself up, not once. Nor I have I experienced anything that is even related to music, such as asking me to subscribe to a service.

It doesn't pop up on its own, but it is the default response to a lot of actions.

Accidentally press the play button? Apple Music. Charge your iphone through your computer? Apple Music.

I find it pretty annoying, but it is also easy to eliminate the default behavior

I've never had Apple Music open when I plugged in my iPhone

I leave Music running all the time. I have all the store and subscription features turned off. I just have the program loaded with all of my MP3s, something I've been doing since it was called SoundJam MP [1]. I have all my playlists in there and it works fine with the play/pause/prev/next buttons on the keyboard. I think they bug me about subscribing to Apple Music once every major OS update. I promptly say no and turn off any of the extra features they added.
