Hello,
I have a lot of my CDs ripped into my iMac iTunes library in ALAC format. The iMac is old and does not support Apple Music or MacOS Catalina (or later). I would like to transfer it to my iPhone 13Pro in the ALAC format so I can play it and back it up to iCloud. I don’t want to pay for Apple Music as I use other streaming services. Lots of advice I found applies to newer MacOS operating systems. Any help would be appreciated.

Apple Music doesn’t co-exist with personal/ripped collections very well. Use instead, a 3rd party app like File Explorer, the basic version of which is free. The pro version single license works across all devices on your local network and also popular cloud services. Both versions are ad-free and come with built-players, can recommend.
Thanks. Would this app be the FE File Explorer Pro, as there seem to be a few ups with similar names?
Yes, the Pro version is for advanced features, in your case networking.
