a few questions about Siri and music

Hey all!

I have a few questions about music and Siri.

1. Say I put my default music service as Spotify. If I want to play an artist whose songs I have purchased on Itunes, can I still do that? For example, can I still say, Hey S, play songs from Citizen Soldier on Music"

2. Will this affect any songs or artists that I have on my ipad from purchasing them on Itunes?

3. I I still ask Siri to play music from other sources? For example, can I ask "Hey S play Better with out you by Evanescence on Youtube Music"?
4. Lastly, can I still purchase music from the Itunes store?

Thanks in advance! Can't wait to update!

yes to all I guess.
here's the thing as I understand it:
all siri does is trys to remember your choice so that you don't need to tell her again and again. nothing changes. you can still play music from other sources if you want in the same way as you use to before IOS 14.5
since it doesn't make the apps a default, I think you'll be able to do everything you mentioned.
I might be wrong but this is how I get this feature.
so for example, you want to play fearless by taylor swift. after installing the update, you'll say:
"hey Siri, play fearless by taylor swift." Siri will say something like "I'm trying to learn your audio preferences. tell me which app would you like to use to play this song?"
this is what happened when I did it. so it didn't ask me to choose a default app. it just told me its trying to remember my choices.
this is my own take on it. I might be wrong but HTH
