How do I get music from Apple Music onto a clip in iMovie?
I am unable to get the tunes from Apple Music to accompany a clip on iMovie. Has anyone done this?

Hi, Tommo_T,
Apple Music cannot be used in an iMovie project first because it is a subscription program and secondly because all of its songs are DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected. To use a song in iMovie you must purchase it directly from the iTunes app store.

This is a consumer forum and none of us here are authorized to speak for Apple. I just point out that the purposes of the two programs, Apple Music and iTunes, are different. The former is for listening and you are not purchasing a track but just the right to stream and listen to a track within the terms of the subsciption. iTunes is for personal listening and use in projects in accordance with the license. You don't need to purchase a track twice if you purchase it initially in iTunes for use in your projects. In your case you didn't realize that, so you would need to make a second purchase.

Thank you Rich!
Comment to Apple - it is a shame that you are essentially buying a track twice.
