Internet radio on iTunes is free.
Possible confusion: Music is the app that replaces iTunes in macOS 10.15. 'Apple Music' is Apple's subscription music streaming service. Different things

Not excited about $10/mo, for their limited selection.
Pandora One is/was half that rate or free with ads.
I subscribed to Pandora over 10 years for $36/yr.
Radium was ~$5, accessed hundreds of stations. and didn't require browser.
Still no reply & last update was in '15.? It hangs on first selection and has to be Force Quit.
Apologies for spamming the group. Since getting shamed for replying directly and not to the Group, that seems to be expected protocol.

If you keep your group messages, it would be in there. If you looked in the message archive at our new home, , it won't. We didn't carry over anything?from our Yahoo site.

You used that option within what, the web site, digest, or your favorite third party email app?
I assume the digest, and it does a horrible job of quoting and gives no attribution.

Re: AIO Printer Recommendation
Vince,
I am the one that asked to be edified. It was a simple request to understand what he was asking. It was not attributed to who asked the questions, but the response was polite.

Sorry I wasn't clearer. It seems that some of the AIO printers I looked at had auto sheet feeders for printing only. So you would not be able to stack several items to copy or Fax.

?My MacBook Pro [~2012] is dying - need to boot up several times to get the apple.
I’m looking at a replacement - current model on the apple website; retail $1499. If I try to trade the old one in [cosmetics OK, only issue is that while it WILL boot the OS, it usually takes several tries. It also has 3rd party [OWC] SSD and added memory.
If it flunks the trade in process, do they send it back or offer me a lower price alternative? I would donate the machine to a nonprofit with someone with some tech smarts who could maybe have it repaired.
