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 you ARE an Apple Music Subscriber, you don't have to pay or press Buy on anything more for anything in the entire Music database which Apple manages because your subscription fee covers ALL music purchases. This does not include movies, it is just music. It's a similar theme for movies, when you 'buy (rent)' a movie, you buy the licence to play it for 48 hours (from when you start it) or if you pay to own the movie, you can play it as many times as you like on YOUR Apple devices too.

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?
