does anyone have any ideas for how i can use what i have at my disposal (apple music drm protected. I was initially relieved when this worked, as up until that point, i was worried that the songs were completely and totally lost to the void and i'd never be able to hear them again, but the problem is that it's obviously quite a hassle to listen to them that way, and doesn't enable me to listen to them on my phone (plus needing to have my wi-fi off is a huge pain), so it's really not a viable solution beyond the super occasional listen. m4p files of all the songs that were removed and return them to the itunes media folder where they had been before the songs were removed- meaning if i turn off wi-fi on my computer and then use the option key when opening the apple music application so i can open the old version of my music library (instead of the current version where the songs are greyed out and unplayable), i'm still able to play the songs with no issue (since there's no internet connection for the apple music application to realize the songs have been removed since the backup i'm accessing was made).
The one positive in this scenario is that i keep very regular time machine backups of my macbook pro, so i was able to find a backup of my apple music library file from about a month ago (before the songs were removed from streaming), and also pull the. Ordinarily, if this happened (and i've certainly had it happen before) i would just find those songs on the internet and download the files to reupload to my apple music library on my computer so i could continue to be able to listen to them normally, but in this case, the artist isn't well known enough for their songs to be on any mp3 sites (trust me, i've checked) or soulseek, and if they were ever posted by the artist on youtube or anywhere else, they've since been taken down there as well. there are some songs i downloaded on apple music earlier this year by a certain artist, and recently (i'm not sure exactly when, but within the last few weeks) that artist removed some of those songs (their earliest releases) from all streaming platforms, rendering me unable to play them on my computer or phone. Hi! so i have what i think is a pretty obscure question/problem to (hopefully) solve lol.
