Best way to transfer Apple Music Library to Spotify account?

Since Apple forces you to cancel your Apple Music Subscription in order to change Account Country/Region, then deletes your Apple Music Library and doesn't allow access back to it even after resubscribing (even though though it is specifically required by Apple in order for you to chance your account country/region). Since I'd have to start from scratch anyways, may as well shift to Spotify and never have to risk losing 7 years worth of music and playlists again.


From anyone with experience with this: what is the best way to shift my entire Apple Music Library over to Spotify?

Have you tried Songshift. I used it to move from Spotify to Apple (try for free for six months offer after headphone purchase). You tell it from and to and it converts from one to the other. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/songshift/id1097974566

Hey, have you checked FreeYourMusic app (https://apps.apple.com/pl/app/freeyourmusic-easy-transfers/id1088699621) already? This app transfers your music from one streaming service to another within a few click and couple of minutes (depends how large your music library is). While it's transfer, you're not loosing your music from the source service, so you can keep your tracks on how many platforms as you want to.

The Apple Music App does permit you to have your own library yes. The Apple Music subscription service, which is the subject of the original post, is a different thing.


You can’t and don’t own any tracks or albums from the subscription service.

Also, if you do have a subscription-based playlist in apple and you move it over to Spotify, how is that piracy? Your answer makes no sense because Spofity is 100% subscription based.

You don’t own the tacks from the subscription service, so you can’t physically transfer the actual files. Again, that would be piracy. You can create a text playlist and then have Spotify recreate the library from its own media files as has been posted many times in the thread you replied to.


Please re-read my replies. Nowhere did I refer to somebody’s personal library. Only the subscription service library as was referenced in the original post.
