Hi Peter, You can find the playlists in the sidebar of Library under ‘Apple Music Playlists’. By default, both your playlists and those created by Apple Music's staff to which you've subscribed are shown. You can click the "All Playlists" in your playlist screen and choose between "Apple Music Playlists" and "My Playlists" ---- “Apple Music is all about streaming. You pay a flat fee to unlock access to Apple Music’s entire catalogue, but you don’t actually own the music you listen to. The files don’t live individually on your devices; you’re instead just listening to tracks stored remotely, that are owned by Apple. You can access your entire iTunes library from within Apple Music—just tap the My Music tab— and iTunes will still be a standalone app and media store if you’d prefer to continue to buy music a la carte. However, if you’ve let purchasing music fall by the wayside, you may never have to open iTunes again if you sign up for an Apple Music subscription.” —— “Not sure if your iCloud Music Library songs are uploaded, matched, purchased, or DRM-laden? Here's how to check. Depending on whether you've subscribed to Apple Music or iTunes Match, your iCloud Music Library may contain songs you've purchased from iTunes, downloaded from the Apple Music streaming catalog, uploaded from your Mac, or matched from your Mac to the iTunes Store catalog. With all of these different types of music files, it's easy to get a little confused over which songs are truly yours, and which ones may disappear if you end your subscription. Here's a quick tip for seeing which is which.” How to check if your Mac's songs are uploaded, matched, purchased, or Apple Music DRM-laden? <https://www.google.com.au/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=How+to+check+if+your+Mac's+songs+are+uploaded,+matched,+purchased,+or+Apple+Music+DRM-laden%3F&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&gfe_rd=cr&ei=cAMxWfL-IerDXorIp_gF> Cheers, Ronni 13-inch MacBook Air (April 2014) 1.7GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost to 3.3GHz 8GB 1600MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM 512GB PCIe-based Flash Storage macOS Sierra 10.12.5 > > Peter Crisp > petercr...@westnet.com.au <mailto:petercr...@westnet.com.au> >
