Once in a while a have titles on a playlists and then I save the album just see listen thorugh it. When I have delete the album, apple music will not only delete the album but also the tracks in all playlists. this makes no sense. I just want to delete the album, not all the titles in my playlists

Hi, ** hast die Antwort schon in der deutschen Community auf deine gleiche Frage erhalten. Speziell für dich übersetzt:
Riccardo, Christine is right. Playlists do not store tracks. The media library consists of albums where tracks are stored, and playlists use the tracks by referring to the tracks in the album.
This way, you can have the same track in multiple playlists without needing additional storage in the media library.
Therefore, you must not delete the entire album if you want to keep individual tracks from it.
To achieve what you want, delete only the tracks you never want to hear again from the media library directly from the album (using ... < Delete from Media Library), but spare the tracks you want to keep. This is the only way they can continue to be used in playlists.
Enjoy
Reiner

This is simply wrong, as I can save tracks without saving album or a single.
The title will only be saved in my playlist
Apple Music deleting music titles from playlists when I delete the album
