Many questions reguarding Apple Music...
Ok so the cellular option in Settings > iTunes & App Store definitely applies to streaming and not just downloads. I just confirmed it today. I don't know how much more plain it can get than to just toggle that and it won't allow you to stream over cellular. It will let you browse Apple Music, it just will prompt you to enable cellular to actually play music. Between that and the option to actually only show music available offline, it's pretty easy to make sure you don't use data. The setting to show only offline music used to be in settings, making it inconvenient to toggle on and off. Having it right in the music app means you can disable cellular streaming always and then toggle between showing offline music only when you are away from wifi.
Looking forward to having the option in iOS 9 that looks like we will be able to break this away from being linked to automatic downloads for updates and apps.
It's not something I'll use often but I'll want the option to do it to be isolated to only the music app like it used to be before iOS 8.4.
