I'm trying Apple Music for the 3 month trial. Hey, it's free. The three big issues for me with streaming music are 1) Song availability. It doesn't do a lot of good if they don't have music that I want to listen to, but don't already have (just as a note, I have been listening to some older artists such as the Flying Burrito Brothers). On the flip side, they don't seem to have either of the top versions of Homeward Bound (The Marta Keen song). They also have limited songs from artists that I like such as the Waifs.
2) Since I generally listen at work where I don't have wifi, it eats into my data plan. Ever since I lost my unlimited data plan, my Pandora usage has dropped quite a bit.
3) I like owning the music that I listen to. My music library is roughly 85 gigs, all music that I purchased. If I hear a song and say "Hey I like that", then I buy it. I tend to use Pandora to find music and as back ground music, but I have also bought a number of songs via Pandora. I currently find most of my music via Pandora and Shazam (hear the song, say Hey, I like that, and use Shazam to identify and buy.)
