Thanks Ronni, it will be more fun to read these terms and conditions than watch the AFL right now! Many people eschew the use of the Apple ecosystem for this and many other reasons. I am quite ok with it and have a Family Music subscription which almost all my family utilise heavily and daily. It has changed our way of living with music from the 80's when CD's and cassettes were widely used to play in cars etc. Even now in the Android environment you're obliged to subscribe to Spotify (I think, unless you want the order set by Spotify and adverts) or other streaming services but maybe there are still ways to play anything you like for free. It is all about supporting the artists that put their effort into producing it. Fair enough I reckon.

Instead, you're BUYING a license to play that track or album, and that license comes with an extremely limited set of rights.” https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html [1] Kind Regards, Ronni Ronni Brown’s iPad Pro 12.9-inch 256GB On 29 Jun 2020, at 6:55 am, Pete wrote: 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: Hi Peter. I am not certain about this but ….I think if you bought the music from Apple, there are restrictions about copying it.

I know I’m a bit behind the times but it appears I can’t access my music like to put a song on a usb stick to take somewhere?
