After changing my Apple ID country, all my downloaded music from Apple Music has disappeared.

Hi,

I recently changed the country to my Apple ID from the U.S. to Australia. I did have a subscription to Apple Music while it was set in the U.S. however did cancel it in order to (permanently) switch to Australia, and just now created a new subscription for it.


While doing that I had lost all my music I had downloaded while having an American subscription, and I was wondering if it were possible at all to find a way and port all the music I downloaded there onto my new subscription? I had so much music downloaded that it would kind of be impossible to find everything I had and redownload it manually one by one.


I hope this makes any sense haha, but thank you for all the help in advance!

The 2 subscriptions can't "see" other, so can't sync previous libraries. The libraries may be different, in that not all artists and tracks are in each "store"
