Summary
Can you save Apple Music songs on Mac for playable forever? A quick and easy way is offered to you for downloading Apple Music files on your Mac and keep them forever no matter whether you cancel the subsription or not.

Apple Music has millions of soundtracks in its database and out of them, many are our all-time favorites. If you don't have Apple Music already, you'll need to get a subscription first: it costs $9.99 a month, $4.99 a month for students, and $14.99 a month for a family of up to 6 people, each with their own devices. Apple Music allows subscribers to download music to a Mac using offline mode. Conversely, if you unsubscribe from Apple Music, all of your songs in My Music will no longer be available. How can I save Apple Music songs when offline mode is not available?

Apple Music offline mode is only available for Apple Music subscribers. All Apple Music files are encoded by Apple's Fairplay DRM, which restricts you from downloading Apple Music directly on your Mac unless you have a designated Apple Music account. In other words, the biggest obstacle to saving these Apple Music files to Mac without registration is DRM encryption. This article is intended to provide a suitable solution for those people who wish to transfer Apple Music songs and save them on your Mac (MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, iMac Pro) or any device, even if you are not subscribed to Apple Music.
