Hey, good to know Apple's music has been DRM free for a while! I've bounced off iTunes many, many years ago.
I somewhat modernized my old 160GB iPod with this board and a larger battery that seems to last for several days between charges. Oddly, only my Windows install of iTunes detects and syncs with it properly. Any modern version of Apple Music on MacOS sees it as an iPod but tells me to reformat every time.
I find it to be absolutely essential for long trips since Apple Music on Android will automatically "manage" my downloaded songs and I can't listen to them offline anymore once airborne and flying over an ocean.
