Hi,
If you previously purchased the music from iTunes Store, you can re-download using music app on your new computer. Redownload music – Apple Support (UK)
You don’t need to subscribe to Apple Music. See also Move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Community

This isn't correct at all. You can easily import previously downloaded music via File > Import. I imported all of my previous iTunes libraries and old mp3s. You can re-download whatever isn't in your folder.
OK. That's cool. Because with the new Music app. (I know it's really bad but hear me out) it asks for only Apple Music subscribers. Not downloaded/iTunes music, therefore, if you have music that you bought previously (on a non Apple device) it probably would not load. I suggest that you go to an Apple Rep to have it refunded (or you can go to https://getsupport.apple.com/solutions/chat) You're welcome!
Hi there,
Just to be sure, can you provide some info on what iMac, what Music app. (Apple Music app or iTunes)? Has it been used before or is it new?
It's a new (no previous owner) iMac 2020 running Ventura 13.3.1(a). It has the Music app, but wants me to subscribe. I can't see subscribing to listen to music I've already paid for.
