This is common sense. Wtf.
Here's what you do
-go to eBay search "student email .edu" (if you are student already then just use your school email)
-for less then $2 you can buy a student email address off eBay to use to sign up. (FYI that email can come in handy for getting say, Amazon Prime free and many other places that offer student discounts.)
- why is this important?
-students pay $4.99/month for Apple Music
-not only do you get Apple Music, but they have included Appletv+ in that price (it's pretty hard to beat and that's a fact)
-thats it!
- furthermore before you sign up. Look for the 3 month or 6 month trial (whichever promo they are offering.
-so when the trial runs out you still get Apple Music and AppleTV+ all for just $4.99/month. Or cancel.
