Part 1: Apple Music and DRM

Apple Music is a music and video streaming service developed by Apple Inc. Users select music to stream to their device on-demand, or they can listen to existing, curated playlists. The service also includes the Internet radio station Beats 1, that broadcasts live to over 100 countries 24 hours a day. The service was announced on June 8, 2015, and launched on June 30, in over 100 countries worldwide. New subscribers get a three-month Get It Now period before the service becomes paid-only.

However, when you download a song to your Mac from Apple Music, it’s got DRM on it. This prevents you from, say, downloading thousands of songs and then cancelling your Apple Music subscription. It’s annoying, but makes business sense, and will help pay the artists you’re listening to.

Apple Music lets you download music to listen to offline, which bring benefits if you are concerned about wireless connection and data overages. As long as your device has space to storing the downloaded music, you can save as many songs as you’d like. But, as the DRM protection, you don’t own those downloaded files which means that you are banned from offloading them anywhere else. You are not allowed to burning them onto a disk, using then in separate video projects or putting them on other devices that aren’t linked to your Apple Music account. It sucks.

1. Any tracks or playlists you download from the Apple Music subscription library will be DRM-encumbered, because you don't own them, and will disappear if you cancel your subscription.
2. If you cancel Apple Music, any iCloud Music Library tracks you don't have stored on a device will disappear.

That is to say, if you have an Apple Music subscription, you can download kinds of music files in month and share and listen to them offline. But when you cancel the Apple Music subscription, all that streaming music becomes inoperable.
