Apple Music to IPod Classic

I am subscribed to Apple Music. Therefore I believe that all my music (uploaded from my CD's) is in Apple's Cloud and not on my Desktop computer.

I am trying to copy this music to my Classic Ipod to be able to play it offline.

Can I do this and how?


Thanks

Because it's a subscription service (and so Apple have to be able to check that you are still subscribed in order to play songs) the songs you've downloaded cannot be copied nor moved to another device. They can be downloaded again on other devices, but not of course on an iPod Classic, only on devices with an internet connection.
