Hello - forgive me if this has already been asked in the past (I searched and couldn't find a thread).

Anyway, I got a code for 4 months free of Apple Music. I've never had Apple Music before because I buy my songs from iTunes and download the songs to my devices. My question is - Does an Apple Music subscription mess with already purchased music from iTunes? I could have sworn I read a few years ago that this was an issue - once you leave Apple Music it takes your purchased music from iTunes with it leaving you with nothing. 😳

What are your experiences with this?

You shouldn't have any issues with it at all. I used to buy all my music from iTunes before using Apple Music. Last year, I switched over to Spotify for a short period of time, and my Music app still showed up with my personal iTunes library.
