OK... I have a question. What is going to happen to my music (downloaded from CDs) that I have on iTunes on my computer and my iPhone when iTunes goes away and Apple Music will replace it? I don't want to subscribe to a streaming service. I listen to music on my iPhone in my car. I like my music just fine....
iPhone 6s
Apple is not closing the iTunes Store. They have announced that they will be replacing the iTunes application on the Mac with 3 separate applications with similar functionality this Fall. On a Mac you will still be able to listen to music that you own by using the Apple Music app (without subscribing to Apple Music). There has been no announcement, at least so far, that they are replacing the iTunes application on Windows. See the following from https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210200
The iTunes Store will still be available to buy music on Mac, iOS, PC, and Apple TV.
