We all know that using a portable device such as an iPod to listen to your favorite music on the road is a perfect experience. Are you an iPod user? If so, I believe you won't be unfamiliar with 'Apple Music songs can't be copied to an iPod'. In fact, you are not the only one who gets this information because many iPod users experience the same problem when copying Apple Music streams to iPod nano, iPod shuffle and iPod classic.
Apple Music songs can't be copied to an iPod, why?
Unlike the iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad, iPod nano/shuffle/classic lacks Wi-Fi and can't access the Music app, which is a requirement that Apple can use to authenticate an active Apple Music subscription. Therefore, it is impossible to stream Apple music tracks to these devices. And, Apple Music downloaded from the iTunes Store is protected with DRM encryption. That's why Apple can guarantee that users aren’t able to keep a collection of songs on their device after cancelling their Apple Music subscription.
To break the DRM restriction from Apple Music, here you meet UkeySoft Apple Music Converter, which is a smart application to enable you remove DRM from Apple Music songs and convert Apple Music tracks or playlists to DRM-free formats such as MP3, M4A, FLAC or WAV without any loss in quality with your Mac computer. In the case, users can transfer converted local music files (from macOS Mojave, macOS High Sierra and macOS Sierra) to iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle easily and quickly. Here we look at how to sync Apple Music songs to iPod for enjoying with the help of UkeySoft Apple Music Converter for Mac.
