Apple's voice assistant, Siri, is meant to have an answer for everything and offers some pretty amusing responses at times.
Most recently, if you ask Siri what to wear for Halloween, you could get the likes of, "Just be yourself, pumpkin," or "You could go as an eclipse. Just dressin black and stand in front of things."
But don't bother trying to ask about music anymore - unless you're also signed up to Apple Music.
Users have taken to Twitter to expose a disagreeable Siri, including co-creator of competing music streaming service Pandora, Tom Conrad.
Even if you're after hits from the past, Siri can't help you there either:
Siri's response to a question from tech website The Verge.
While Siri's ability to handle questions about music charts has been linked to Apple Music since the service was launched, tech commentators are condemning the fact that non-subscribers aren't delivered to an ordinary web search.
Jeff Bakalar from tech product review site CNET said: "This is crazy that they would do this. Nobody wants to be shamed into paying $10 a month for Apple Music. It's a bad look for Apple."
