Beats Music app for iPhone and iPad updated to encourage users to move to Apple Music

The Apple Music streaming audio service is now live, and as a consequence the Beats Music service is being retired. The official Beats Music app for the iPhone and iPad has been updated with a message to encourage its users to switch over to Apple Music.

Here's the specific message that is being sent to Beats Music subscribers:

Apple Music is here! Apple Music offers many of the great features you already know and love in Beats Music. Plus, you'll have unlimited access to over 30 millions songs, including handcrafted playlists and albums curated by the world's leading music experts, a reimagined live radio station, and a personal connection to the artists you love. If you're a Beats Music subscriber, you can easily move your subscription to Apple Music, taking all your playlists and your library with you.
