Buying individual music versus a monthly subscription

Why can’t I buy individual songs anymore....I was not utilizing the monthly music as much as I could/should and all my downloaded songs are gone when I could have purchased cheaper than the time and money spent each month

Apple still offers the option to buy music from the iTunes Store (without needing to have an Apple Music subscription). See instructions in Buy music from the iTunes Store - Apple Support


The Apple Music subscription rights to music are only available while you have a subscription. The rights to purchased music do not expire.
