Music on Control 4

Thinking about adding control 4 to a new build home. We currently use apple music with Sonos but find the Sonos app to be super slow and the app to system has a delay. We are therefore considering using Apple music with control 4. I am not techy at all and have some basic questions:

- If we use apple music on our phones does that mean we are airplaying to the control 4 speaker system? In an old post on this thread someone said: "having to airplay doesn't allow you to do anything on your phone that has sound without it either stopping what's playing over the speakers or changing the source to what you're trying to view on the phone." Is this still true? This sounds like a nightmare. I don't want my phone sound projected over the home speakers.

Is there an alternative to airplay? I also would like my kids (who dont have phones) to be able to play music on the home speakers via the wall control 4 tablet.
