Of all the audio and video streaming services, Apple is probably the one that comes to your mind as a popular music service provider. iTunes, a software developed by Apple Inc. is an all-inclusive application of media player, media library, and online radio broadcaster. With iTunes, you can play, download, and organize digital audio and video on personal computers. Your music can be accessed in one place, whether they are purchased from iTunes, ripped from CD or downloaded. iTunes allows you to enjoy the music service with a monthly based subscription or you can purchase media with copyright directly through iTunes stores. This is because the music from both the iTunes store and Apple Music comes with DRM protection, so to play the music out of Apple devices without iTunes or Apple Music installed is not permitted. <\/p>\n

Whatever the reason it is, you can always choose to cancel your membership anytime, and it\u2019s extremely easy. Here\u2019s how to cancel the iTunes subscription with specific instructions.<\/p>\n

    What if I Cancel iTunes Subscription? <\/h2>\n

    So, what happens when you cancel the iTunes subscription? What about the music downloaded to the library? Will the saved playlist be gone as well? After your subscription is over, you\u2019ll still have access to Apple Music until the next billing day. But when the membership ends, your music downloaded will be removed from all your Apple devices. All playlists you saved and created will be completely wiped out after the cancellation. Of course, you can add your purchased music to the iCloud music library since iCloud Music Library allows you to access your entire iTunes library. However, you cannot access them until you re-subscribe to Apple Music. <\/p>\n

    Shame, right? So if you want to keep your music and playlists after leaving Apple Music, you have to figure out a way to save or transfer them to another device. We\u2019re here to help, just read on. <\/p>\n
