Bizarre as in too low or too high? My 'minutes played' seemed highly overinflated but then the actual stream counts seemed super low.

My minutes seem lower than I expected other than my top few artists (who are only there because they were on loop nn).
The album play count is a mess. It's claiming I've listened to Taylor's Midnights 32 times which I haven't... I've given Anti-Hero a few streams and You're On Your Own Kid but that's about it. Same with Carly's The Loneliest Time, it's claiming I've listened to it 26 times when I've only ever done one all the way listen through. Charli's Crash is split into two and there's also a couple of singles in there from other artists?!
There's probably some very specific analytic that counts as 'album play' as opposed to 'track play'. Like, a track in a playlist is a track play, but if you've found the album, gone into it and played the same track that might count as an album play. Or something. I mean, as much as I love the Beyonce album, I haven't played the entire thing 180 times, but I can believe I have located the album in my library and played tracks from it that many times.
(Analytics are fascinating - I think if you have watched the first 3 minutes of a Netflix show, they count that as a watch, even if you turned if off at 3m 1s)

Oooo I wonder if they're using AI to remove vocals? I guess you could use it as an option to just listen to instrumentals. That would be a very nifty feature
I think most Spatial Audio/Dolby Atmos mixes already isolate the vocals in a separate channel so it’s probably going to be easy for them.

This sing feature is fun, if not just for the instrumentals.
You can tell which songs they actually used the instrumental for vs AI, but still a very nice feature. It's fun adjusting the vocal levels.
Does anyone have an issue when playing Rated R by Rihanna that Wait Your Turn starts with some weird abrupt screech before cutting off a few seconds before the song is actually finished?
Not sure if it’s Apple Music or iTunes Match causing the issue or the cd rip from way back when has messed up on my Match.

Mine is matched and plays fine. I also tried the Apple Music version and that plays fine too.
Maybe yours matched years ago to an older file that's corrupted on Apple's servers? It's worth removing it from your library and letting it match again.
Are you listening to the explicit version? The censored version seems fine on mine but the explicit version has messed up.
He/Him
Yep it's the explicit version.
Thanks. I’ll give the remove and re add a go.
