Apple Music isn't the best streaming music service — it's just the least annoying::Competitors like Spotify and YouTube Music may be your first choice for music on Android, but you might want to reconsider

Uhmm it's pretty clear to me.

He says that after 10 years "nano.RIPE" music still cannot be purchased outside Japan.

I guess his point is that sadly that is not always a solution (outside piracy) as sometimes you cannot actually buy certain music, but I am guessing is actually available to be played on the streaming subscription service.

Oh, "nano.RIPE" is a name. I thought it was a spelling mistake.

I didn't know what nano.RIPE was and still don't really (maybe a musician or store), but I understand enough to know what he's saying now. I know not all music is available but quite a bit is (this was surprising to me). Maybe the outlying songs are left to pirating. That's a personal predicament.
