User: I hear music online, like on Apple Music, but how come none of it counts toward radio play?
Assistant: That's because streaming music services like Apple Music don't count toward radio plays. Most radio plays are counted by sales, downloads and physical copies, which streaming services don't typically offer. Additionally, most radio stations have their own set of criteria they use to determine plays. So while streaming music is great to listen to, it is not typically part of the radio equation.
