We all know that SoundTouch wireless and multi-room speakers are the easiest way to enjoy a world of music. With them, users can browse popular music services like Spotify, Deezer or TuneIn, or your stored music library and easily personalize presets for one touch access to the music you love, and control one or many SoundTouch speakers.

As you see, SoundTouch supports many music streaming services, but Apple Music doesn't included. If you are Apple Music subscribers, are there any methods to play them via SoundTouch Speakers?

Don't worry, this tutorial will focus on the complete guide of how to play Apple Music on SoundTouch Speakers in three methods.

AirPlay is a technique developed by Apple Inc. which allows the wireless streaming of audio, video and photos between devices.
