Hi Pete, Is that correct if you buy music using iTunes, ie pay hard money for it vs renting through Apple Music? Cheers Marcus Marcus Harris Mobile +61417965618 > On 29 Jun 2020, at 6:55 am, Pete wrote: > > Correct Stephen. If you 'buy' your music from Apple, you've actually only >

Yes Peter and Stephen you are correct. “If you buy a digital music track or album from the iTunes store or one of its competitors, you don't own it. Instead, you're buying a license to play that track or album, and that license comes with an extremely limited set of rights.”

Yes, that is a bummer. If you're a subscriber, you've paid for access to the entire Apple Music database - it must be enormous! There is no need to BUY anything, in fact I thought being a subscriber, you can't actually BUY anything in the Music store - the log in should be recognised and not

Hi Stephen, when you buy some content (Music) on your iMac, this in turn adds it to your iTunes library. If you have the "iCloud Music Library" button ON (green) (on the iPhone Settings>Music>iCloud Music Library), then there is no need to connect the phone to the Mac and synch, you can just open

Right, agreed Peter, music that you own the content and have imported into iTunes doesn't have the DRM applied and so I believe you should be able to make further CD's of that owned content or export to a USB if you choose. I have put this to the test just now. A CD (that I bought myself) I

Certainly some things have changed in the Apple music world. I occasionally buy a few songs from Apple Music. I do this using my iMac. Then I plug my iPhone 6S (and also my wife’s iPhone SE) into my iMac and Sync. But lately, when I Sync iPhones with iMac Music, not all songs transfer to the

Hi 95% of my music is off cassettes, records and CD’s! I’m not looking to avoid buying music, or giving it to others so they can avoid buying it. It’s just the simplicity I had before with iTunes seems to me to have been removed. I have found solutions to my current situation, just find the

Hi Marcus, I think if you press the "buy" button on a song or album, if you're NOT an Apple Music paid subscriber, then you get to play that song on your apple device/s anywhere and download to your device to play where you don't have 4G service - but still constrained to your Apple devices. If

Correct Stephen. If you 'buy' your music from Apple, you've actually only bought the right to play it on an Apple device. You can't make a CD of it or copy off to any other storage means. I'm sure it's in the fine print. Regards Pete > On 28 Jun 2020, at 10:29 pm, Stephen Chape wrote: > >
