2. Apple Music tracks are DRM-protected which prevents you from copying, sharing or playing the songs on not-authorized device. You subscribe to Apple Music and you can even download Apple Music for offline listening, but actually you don't have the ownership of the Apple Music tracks you have downloaded.
