Why won’t my downloaded songs play after I cancel my Apple Music subscription?

ive recently cancelled my Apple Music subscription I can’t play any of the songs Ive downloaded through that subscription. Is there anyway of you helping me listen to them without getting a subscription again?

Apple Music is a subscription service, Any music that you had from that will no longer be able to be played once you cancel the subscription. You did not purchase the music, you would only be able to listen to the music while you had the subscription.


Downloading the music only allowed you to play them while offline as long as you had the subscription. Once you stopped that, the music is no longer available, and you no longer have the right to play it.
