Purchased, downloaded music is showing up as HLS files
I'm attempting to load some purchased music onto a non-Apple digital audio player.
I've located the music I've purchased in the iTunes store and selected "download" to my Mac.
When I locate that album in my Music Library, the files there are in the HLS format.
I understand the HLS format is for streaming that song via an Apple Music subscription (which I have).
Where/how can I locate the actual AAC file?
Also, is there an easier way to download all purchased music, rather than an album at a time?
FWIW, I've confirmed my Mac is authorised for Music.
Thanks for your help!
