Apple Music, App Store, and Mac App Store Suffering Limited Outages Following iOS 13 and macOS Catalina Betas [Resolved]

Apple Music, the App Store, and the Mac App Store are experiencing outages affecting "some users," according to Apple's system status page, one day after Apple seeded the first betas of iOS 13 and macOS Catalina to developers.

Apple says some users are "experiencing a problem" with each service. The company is investigating and will update the statuses of each service as more information becomes available. The issues began around 5 a.m. Pacific Time.

Update: Apple says all services are now operating normally.

(Thanks, Chris!)

Is this issue specific to iOS 13 & Catalina betas? Otherwise what is the relevance of specifying them in the article?
