The arrival of Apple Music (http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/30/a-closer-look-at-apple-music/) has been much-celebrated, but for it to live, the company appears to have killed-off Home Sharing (http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/01/how-to-enable-home-sharing-on-mac-and-ios-devices/) from iOS (http://www.engadget.com/2015/04/13/ios-8-4-beta-with-music-app/). The feature enabled you to stream tunes from your desktop (i.e. where your collection is) over your home network to a local iPod, iPhone or iPad. Unfortunately, as9to5Mac (http://9to5mac.com/2015/07/01/home-sharing-support-removed-ios-8-4/?) reports, that offering has now been pulled, so you'll have to postpone any impromptu kitchen parties that you had planned. Interestingly, the change only affects music playback, since you can still share video (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202190) to nearby iDevices.
