Can You Share Music From Apple Music
It's possible to save a song for listening offline, but only on that device. You cannot transfer it to another device or burn it to a CD, because you have rented it, not bought it, and they are subject to DRM. (Consequently such songs cannot be accessed on an iPod Nano, Shuffle or Classic, only the Touch.) If you cease to pay the subscription any items you have saved in this way will become inaccessible.
Sep 6, 2017 - If you want to listen to your Apple Music offline, you'll need a way to download all Apple Music at once. However, unlike Spotify, Apple Music. Jul 4, 2015 - You can even listen to that new music without sucking on your data plan. One way to do that is to download songs from Apple Music's library.
Feb 26, 2013 - We show you how to download music to your iPod or iPhone so you can. We've outlined the simple steps to get your Apple device up. Two worlds serial number. Download Apple Music app for Android. App that allows users to download their favorite music.
As with iTunes Match (see below), items which are in the Store but you have ripped from CDs, will be available as part of this, but if you don't also have an iTunes Match subscription DRM (Digital Rights Management) will be added to them and they will not be playable if you terminate the subscription.
Items you have ripped from CDs or obtained otherwise which are not in the Store's library will be uploaded in the same manner as iTunes Match and will not be affected by DRM.
As to songs previously purchased from the Store, they are available for download as before, without DRM, in your music library, but will also show in Apple Music (together with all other available songs) from where they will be downloaded to an Apple Music folder and like all other Apple Music downloads will be subject to DRM.
iTUNES MATCH
This makes all items in your iTunes collection available online for access to your other devices. Songs you have purchased will be available, as with 'Tunes in the Cloud'; songs you have for example ripped from CDs you have bought will be matched by the version in the Store if this is available; if it isn't available your copy will be uploaded for access by other devices. There is a limit of 25,000 songs - this applies only to items not available in the Store (as purchased items are already available online). There is a charge of $24.99/£21.99 per year. The storage for these items does not count towards your iCloud storage space (indeed, though marketed as being part of iCloud it's actually nothing to do with it). Items in iTunes Match are not affected by DRM (Digital Rights Management which restricts where you can play them). Once downloaded you can still play them if you terminate the subscription (though in that event you can't make further uploads or downloads).
Wreck this journal free download. To summarize:
Subscriptions | None | Match only | Music only | Both |
Stream and download all songs in Apple Music library | NO | NO | YES with DRM | YES with DRM |
Re-download purchases without DRM | YES* | YES | YES (and with DRM if from Apple Music) | YES (and with DRM if from Apple Music) |
Matched ripped songs which are in Store/Library | NO | YES without DRM | YES with DRM | YES without DRM |
Upload ripped songs which are not in Store/Library** | NO | YES without DRM | YES without DRM | YES without DRM |
*N.B. Older purchases which still have DRM will continue to have it when re-downloaded.
**Songs in Apple Lossless, WAV or AIFF will be converted to 256kb/s AAC (M4a).
Apple Music is here for iPhone and iPad, although iTunes users are, for the moment, unable to access the service. Apple's new music service, its answer to Spotify, went online at 4pm on Tuesday afternoon.
If you haven't got it yet, here's how to download.
To download Apple Music, you need to update your operating system to iOS 8.4.
From the 'Settings' app, scroll down to 'General' and hit 'Software Update'. You'll need 212 MB of space to download iOS 8.4.
iOS 8.4 also improves iBooks, allowing users to browse, listen and download audiobooks from inside iBooks, and fixes the 'effective power' text bug that would crash a friend's iPhone if you sent them a certain text.
Once you've updated, your 'Music' app will have a shiny new white and blue/red fascia, rather than the orange of previous versions.
Open it up, and you get the option to start your three-month free trial.
You do have to sign up to pay £9.99 a month (or £14.99 for the family version) after the trial ends. Don't worry, you can turn this off - more on it below.
Once you're in, Apple will ask you for your favourite genres, and then artists.
Tap on a bubble to expand it, and tap again to expand it further, if you're a really big fan of that particular artist or genre.

Once you're through that, you're ready to go. Apple Music will start recommending you songs, albums and playlists based on your preferences.
Mac and PC
Apple Music will come through an iTunes update - version 12.2 - which is not yet available.

Android and Apple TV
No joy yet, Android users. According to Apple, it's coming in the autumn.
How to prevent paying after the free trial
You get Apple Music free for three months, but if you do nothing, you'll start paying after that.
When gaining access, you will have entered your Apple ID password, meaning that your bank card will be billed from October onwards.
If you don't want to do this, you can turn off automatic renewal.
- In the Music app, hit your profile in the top left corner of the screen
- Hit 'View Apple ID' and enter your passsword to go to your account options
- Scroll down to subscriptions and press 'Manage'
- Turn the 'Automatic Renewal' option to off
If you do this, you won't be able to access Apple Music after the free trial expires.
