Why You Need to Disable iCloud Music?

The iCloud Music Library is a great feature that allows Apple users to sync and share all music tracks from Apple Music and iTunes to all devices. It works by matching the songs in the library with the tracks available in the iTunes Music Store, allowing you to download or stream from anywhere via an internet connection. However, more and more iOS users have reflected that enabling iCloud music library has encountered some unexpected problems, such as:

-- iCloud Music Library won't respond.
-- Songs are synced with missing or mismatched album artwork.
-- Live tracks didn't match to their studio versions.
--Tracks show wrong metadata.

What Happens When I Disable iCloud Music Library?

Turning off the iCloud music library is an easy job, but you should remember that something happens when you disable the iCloud music library:

* You will no longer be able to stream songs from the Mac library on your iOS device.
* You also cannot download songs and playlists from Apple Music to other devices which means that you do not have any offline access.
* You need to manually sync the music in your iTunes library on your Mac. You can transfer it to your phone via Wi-Fi, and USB is also available.
