Because it auto-played when you didn't want to.

If you had Spotify running and then pressed the quick-play on your phones it would continue where it was, but after a reboot the iPhone would auto-play from Apple Music instead if Spotify hadn't been started.

So tapping play on your headphones would start those damn U2 songs "by accident" because it's the only thing that was on the Apple Music accounts we aren't using.. yeah no thanks.

THIS WAS THE ISSUE 100% - every single time I rode in a car with an iPhone connected to the ICE, that damn U2 album would autoplay.

And Siri still plays it for me when it doesn't understand me because I have nothing else in my music library and it's still not possible to remove it :( :( I hate U2 and I don't have homepods to play music. But deleting it from the library just puts it back

UX at its finest.

But not U2 at their finest, though
