Kodi / XBMC: Use Apple Music - you need to know that
You can stream videos and music from numerous online portals via Kodi (formerly XBMC). So it makes sense to also play Apple Music via the versatile media center. We'll tell you if that's possible.
No Apple Music available in Kodi

- However, you can play music and other media content from your Apple iPhone, iPad or iPod through AirPlay in Kodi. No special extension is necessary for this, but you must first activate AirPlay in Kodi.
