What does Infinity symbol mean in Apple Music?

The infinity symbol (∞) is used in the Apple Music to represent the recently added Autoplay function in the app. So, if you have an infinity symbol active on the screen, it simply indicates that the autoplay feature is turned on. With the feature enabled, the app endlessly streams all of your music starting with the songs queued on the service and even all the albums. Once all the songs are finished playing, the app will play similar songs that are based on the music available in your library. It works similar to the Spotify feature.
