“I’ve been a loyal user of Apple Music for years. This service is an essential part of my travel, recommending songs on the go and turning them into cherished travel memories. I want to know what happened to the music that I owned after canceling subscription. Particularly worried about the music Apple Music songs as I paid a lot for that.”
Apple Music is one of the largest streaming music services. By subscribing to the service, you will need to pay $9.99 per month and up to 45,000 tracks for you to choose from and enjoy. You can also play the songs and download the songs for offline listening. If you unsubscribe and cancel the Apple Music service, the music you download will be grayed out and unplayable for 30 days. If you re-register within 30 days, they will be active again. Once 30 days expire, all the songs and playlists will disappear.
Why are you subject to such restrictions? It is known that iTunes contents including Apple Music songs are protected by Apple’s FairPlay DRM copyright, which prevents users from simply registering and downloading a bunch of songs for offline listening, then unsubscribing and fleeing. That’s to say, if you want to keep downloaded Apple Music songs forever on your computer or iPhone, iPad, Mac and other devices, you should remove DRM protection from Apple Music songs. And UkeySoft Apple Music Converter is the best tool to keep the Apple Music playable forever on your devices.
