Beats Music ends on November 30. Your subscription will be cancelled, but you can move your picks and preferences over to Apple Music right now.

All the pros that curated music for you are still crafting more amazing experiences. Plus, on Apple Music, you’ll get even better recommendations based on music you already listen to and love, 24/7 global radio with Beats 1, exciting material from your favorite artist, and more.

Apple bought Beats Music in April 2014 for $3 billion. Afterwards, founders Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, along with creative officer Trent Reznor, started working on creating Apple Music.

Since June 30, Apple Music has well over 6.5 million paying subscribers and 8.5 million users. Those numbers put Apple Music only second to Spotify’s 20 million users. However, those numbers should quickly change as Apple Music will become available to Andriod phone users this week.
