How to Upload Local Music to Apple Music?

Apple Music allows users to access to over 100 million songs on demand, where you can always find your favorite artist and new tracks. However, sometimes you may discover that some songs or albums you are looking for are not available on the service. Maybe you have the music collection that you want to have available through the service. That’s where the option to add your own music to Apple Music can come in handy. If you aren't sure how to add your own music to the Apple Music library, simply follow the steps below.

Upload Local Music to Apple Music

After the music has been uploaded, you can now play them from your music library on any device with the iTunes/Music app installed, including both desktop and mobile.

Part 2: How to Download Music from Apple Music on PC/Mac?

In addition to uploading audio to the Apple Music library, you can also download the tracks in offline mode for enjoyment without an internet connection. Now, there are mainly two methods for downloading Apple Music for offline listening.

#1: The first and the most common one is to directly download music from Apple Music, but you should keep in mind that it is required to keep your Apple Music subscription to access the downloaded songs. To download music from the Apple Music App on PC/Mac, choose the album, playlist or song to download and tap the Download icon beside it.

#2: The second one is to use Sidify Apple Music Converter to extract audios from Apple Music, then download or convert them to plain audio files for offline use on your computer or other devices. In this method, you can permanently keep Apple Music songs, even after canceling your Apple Music subscription in future.
