Apple Music gives you access to millions of songs, but DRM is a limitation many people eventually run into. Apple removed DRM from iTunes purchases back in 2009, offering them as 256 Kbps AAC—much like how iTunes Match can upgrade tracks that're matched or uploaded from your personal library to DRM-free versions for a small fee. Even so, AAC is still not as universally supported as MP3. MP3 remains the more flexible choice for everyday use, whether you're listening on an Android device, a car stereo, a MP3 players, a smartwatch. And while DRM-free purchases can be converted to MP3 using iTunes' built-in encoder, that convenience still requires buying the tracks first.
So, can you convert Apple Music to MP3? — Yes for purchased tracks, but not directly through Apple for subscription content unless you use a workaround. The most common option is to use an Apple Music converter like ViWizard Apple Music Converter, which take the same Apple Music library you already have and turn those tracks in MP3 files at up to 256 Kbps, ready to use across all your devices. Once converted, the MP3 files behave like any standard, DRM-free library—easy to share, easy to back up, and no longer locked to the Apple ecosystem.
Let's walk through the different ways you can do it.
Keep Apple Music songs forever by saving them in formats like MP3 to play anywhere.
Way 1: Convert Apple Music to MP3 with ViWizard Apple Music Converter (Desktop Software)
Best for removing DRM and converting your Apple Music library to MP3 with full album info preserved

- Formats: MP3, WAV, FLAC, AIFF, M4A, M4B
- Max bitrate: Up to 320 Kbps
- Speed: Up to 30× faster

- Price: ~$14.95/month or ~$89.95 lifetime
- Best for: Converting full libraries or playlists
ViWizard Apple Music Converter can convert Apple Music to MP3 (or other popular formats) without breaking a sweat. It saves tracks directly from anything you find through the built-in Apple Music Web Player. For MP3 output, it supports up to 320 Kbps — or stays at the original 256 Kbps if you prefer. DRM is removed automatically, giving you the freedom to play your music anywhere.
It's ideal if you want to convert your entire Apple Music library or select songs, playlists, or albums. It works with the full Apple Music catalog, supports batch downloads, and runs up to 30× faster than many recording tools. If you rely on metadata to keep things organized, you're covered — metadata, album art, and lyrics stay intact. Unlike iTunes or Apple Music, which can't convert streaming tracks to MP3, ViWizard makes the process painless.
No waiting through real-time recording like with Audacity, and no extra purchases required. Aside from MP3, it supports WAV, FLAC, AIFF, M4A, and M4B. You can adjust bitrate and channels, but the default settings are already solid. As a note, the final output still reflects your Apple Music account playback settings, including Dolby Atmos, Lossless, or standard AAC.
It works on both Windows and Mac. You can try it now and see for yourself.

- Formats: MP3, AAC, WAV, FLAC, M4A, M4B
- Metadata: Auto-filled
- Method: Real-time recording
- Price: ~$29.95/month or ~$159.95 lifetime

ViWizard Streaming Audio Recorder is basically ViWizard Apple Music Converter combined with other popular music converters designed by ViWizard, like those for Amazon Music, Tidal, and more. It's more comprehensive for users juggling multiple music services and libraries. You still get clean MP3s with proper metadata attached.
If you've used ViWizard tools before, it'll feel familiar — open the app, choose the Apple Music Converter module, and ViWizard loads the Apple Music Web Player so you can add tracks, set your format, and start converting.
A versatile all-in-one streaming music recorder to extract songs, albums, playlists, and exclusive content from Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Deezer, Pandora, SoundCloud, Qobuz and LINE MUSIC into popular formats like MP3 — with support for original sound quality, fast batch conversion, and built-in music management to help you save, organize, and enjoy your favorite tracks anytime, anywhere.

Way 3: Convert Apple Music to MP3 Using the Built-in Apple Music MP3 Encoder (iTunes Conversion Method)
Simple, no-install method to convert Apple Music songs to MP3
- Platform: Windows (iTunes), macOS (Music app)
- Function: Converts purchased or imported songs to MP3
- Formats: MP3, AAC, AIFF, WAV, ALAC
- DRM: Cannot convert Apple Music streaming
- Price: Free
- Metadata: Retained
- Best for: Users with iTunes purchases or local files
While ViWizard Apple Music Converter or Streaming Audio Recorder is the go-to solution for bulk converting, iTunes is a simple and free option — but only if the tracks are DRM-free, such as purchased iTunes songs or uploaded audio files.
MP3 conversion is straightforward. In the Music app or iTunes, go to Edit (or iTunes) > Preferences > General, then open Import Settings. Choose MP3 Encoder or other available encoders like AAC, AIFF, WAV, or Apple Lossless. Once set, select your tracks, hover over Convert, and choose Create MP3 Version. A new MP3 copy will appear next to the original. This can occasionally be confusing, so checking "Song Info" helps distinguish versions. Note this doesn't work for DRM-protected streaming tracks. For full catalogs or more control, ViWizard is still the better choice.
- Pros
- Free
- Built-in MP3 encoder
- Easy for purchased tracks
- Cons
- No Apple Music streaming conversion
- Duplicate files can confuse
- Very limited control
Step 1: Launch the iTunes application on your computer.
Step 2: Purchase or import the Apple Music tracks you want to convert. To purchase, use the search bar in the upper-right corner of the iTunes Store to find the songs, then click the price next to them.
Step 3: To import tracks, click "File" > "Add File to Library" or "Add Folder to Library". Alternatively, drag and drop files directly into your iTunes library.
Step 4: In iTunes, go to "Edit" (Windows) or "iTunes" (Mac) and select "Preferences".
Step 5: In the Preferences window, navigate to the "General" tab and click "Import Settings".
Step 6: Choose "MP3 Encoder" as the import format.
Step 7: In your iTunes library, select the AAC songs or local files you want to convert to MP3.
Step 8: Right-click the selected tracks and choose "Create MP3 version". iTunes will convert them to MP3 format.
Step 9: You can find the newly created MP3 versions in your iTunes library alongside the original Apple Music tracks.
Way 4: Convert Apple Music to MP3 with NoteBurner Apple Music Converter (Desktop Software)
Converts Apple Music to MP3 with accurate metadata and track info
- Platform: Windows, macOS
- Function: Converts Apple Music to MP3
- Formats: MP3, ALAC, AIFF, AAC, WAV, FLAC
- Metadata: Full ID3 tags
- Speed: Up to 10×
- Price: ~$14.95/month or ~$129.9 lifetime
- Best for: Large libraries, consistent output
This is another Apple Music converter that supports MP3. NoteBurner Apple Music Converter differs from ViWizard mainly because it comes from a different developer. NoteBurner separates its Windows "iTunes Audio Converter" and Mac "Apple Music Converter," letting users rely on either the Apple Music Web Player, the Apple Music app, or iTunes depending on their setup. It supports MP3, ALAC, AIFF, AAC, WAV, and FLAC. Batch conversion works smoothly, output stays consistent, and ID3 tags with album art remain intact. You can try both ViWizard and NoteBurner to decide which feels more worth it.
- Pros
- Supports many formats
- Stable batch converting
- Keeps ID3 tags
- Clean, organized output
- Cons
- Different apps for Mac/Windows
- Paid
- UI feels dated
Way 5: Convert Apple Music to MP3 with Sidify Apple Music Converter (Desktop & Android Software)
Great choice for both desktop and Android users
- Platform: Windows, macOS, Android
- Function: Converts Apple Music to MP3
- Formats: MP3, AAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF, FLAC
- Metadata: Preserved
- Speed: Up to 10×
- Price: ~$59.95/year or ~$129.9 lifetime
- Best for: Cross-device use, including Android
Sidify Apple Music Converter is essentially NoteBurner's twin — similar interface, navigation, options, and speed. But Sidify offers something NoteBurner doesn't: an Android app. It's clean and easy to use on Windows, Mac, or Android. Sidify now works across devices, making it great if you only need a handful of tracks on different platforms.
- Pros
- Works on Windows, Mac, Android
- Solid MP3 output
- Simple interface
- Supports multiple formats
- Cons
- Android version limited
- Paid
- Very similar to NoteBurner
Way 6: Convert Apple Music to MP3 with TuneFab Apple Music Converter (Desktop Software)
Adjustable audio settings for custom MP3 conversions
- Platform: Windows, macOS
- Function: Converts Apple Music Web Player songs to MP3
- Formats: MP3, FLAC, WAV, M4A
- Max MP3 quality: 320 Kbps
- Speed: 5×–10×
- Price: ~$35.95/month or ~$99.95 lifetime
- Best for: Simple Web Player–based conversion
TuneFab Apple Music Converter is similar to ViWizard Streaming Audio Recorder in that MP3 conversion is bundled with other services. It focuses on the Apple Music Web Player and allows adjustments to bitrate, sample rate, and channels. Along with MP3, other formats are supported as well.
- Pros
- Web Player access
- MP3 with adjustable settings
- Easy setup
- Multiple formats supported
- Cons
- Fewer advanced features
- Paid
- Web Player can load slowly
Way 7: Download Apple Music as MP3 with APPLMusicDownloader (Online Downloader)
Fast web-based Apple Music to MP3 conversion without software installation
- Platform: Web (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)
- Function: Downloads Apple Music tracks as MP3 using link
- Formats: MP3 only
- Max quality: Claims 320 Kbps
- Price: Free
- Metadata: Varies
- Limitations: Source unclear; not always reliable
- Best for: Fast, no-install MP3 downloads
Online Apple Music downloaders like APPLMusicDownloader are becoming more popular for converting Apple Music links into MP3 files. The idea is simple: paste the URL, and it saves the track as MP3. Where the MP3 actually comes from is usually unclear. APPLMusicDownloader advertises up to 320 Kbps MP3s, which sets it apart among similar tools. It claims to pull audio directly from Apple Music — which seems questionable — but the MP3s it generates are real and free.
Compared to software like ViWizard Apple Music Converter, APPLMusicDownloader is browser-based with no installation required. It works in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera — basically any modern browser. The trade-off: it's quick and convenient but not feature-rich. If you want more control over formats, bitrates, or extra settings, ViWizard Apple Music Converter is still the better pick. It's ideal whether you want casual MP3s or professional-grade FLACs or WAVs.
- Pros
- No install needed
- Free
- Very simple
- Works in any browser
- Cons
- Quality uncertain
- No format options
- Unreliable for large downloads
- Source unclear
Step 1: Visit the APPLMusicDownloader website at APPLMusicDownloader.com.
Step 2: On the homepage, you can either use the online downloader directly or download the APPLMusicDownloader app for Windows or Mac. Choose the option that suits you.
Step 3: If you're using the online version, no installation is needed. If you prefer the app, install it by following the instructions after the download completes.
Step 4: Open APPLMusicDownloader (either the website or the app) on your computer.
Step 5: To find the music you want, go to Apple Music (either the app or web player) and locate the song, album, or playlist.
Step 6: Once you've found the content, click the three dots menu (ellipsis) next to the music, then select Share and Copy Link to copy the URL.
Step 7: Go back to APPLMusicDownloader and paste the copied URL into the input field at the top of the page.
Step 8: Click Search, and once the results load, APPLMusicDownloader will automatically redirect you to the download page.
Step 9: On the download page, you'll see the available download options. For individual songs or playlists, click the Download button next to the track, or Download All Songs to save an entire playlist.
Step 10: The MP3 files will begin downloading directly to your device.
Way 8: Download Apple Music as MP3 with APLMate (Online Downloader)
Another stable alternative to APPLMusicDownloader for Apple Music MP3s
- Platform: Web
- Function: Converts Apple Music links to MP3
- Formats: MP3 only
- Price: Free
- Metadata: Rarely included
- Limitations: No format or quality options
- Best for: Single tracks, simple browser use
APLMate is another simple online tool that turns sharable Apple Music links into MP3 files. It's good for one-off tracks, but it lacks advanced options like selecting formats, and the source of the MP3 is usually unclear. For that reason, ViWizard Apple Music Converter remains a better option — it supports more formats and pulls directly from official sources. APLMate is still handy as a backup since online services can hit limits or run into glitches. MP3 bitrates may vary, so it's worth double-checking the file after saving.
- Pros
- Fast for single tracks
- Free
- Browser-based
- No setup
- Cons
- No format or quality control
- Inconsistent results
- Not for big libraries
- Unknown MP3 source
Way 9: Record and Export Apple Music to MP3 with Audacity (Audio Recorder)
Manual recording and editing for Apple Music MP3s with full customization
- Platform: Windows, macOS, Linux
- Function: Records Apple Music in real-time
- Formats: MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG, and more
- Price: Free
- Metadata: Manual
- Method: Real-time play-and-record
- Best for: Editing and customizing recordings
Audacity is an open-source tool trusted by musicians, podcasters, and creators. For capturing Apple Music as MP3, Audacity is one of the few recording-based options available ever since Apple restricts system audio capturing in some cases like screen recording. It works on Windows and Mac, records in real time, and includes editing tools to clean up audio, add effects, or trim sections.
Unlike ViWizard, Audacity records in real time, meaning albums or playlists must play from beginning to end. It's slower, but you get full manual control. When finished, export the audio as MP3 or other formats. Still, if you want clean results without background noise or manual steps, ViWizard Apple Music Converter remains the more streamlined choice.
- Pros
- Free and open source
- Full editing tools
- Works on Windows/Mac
- Good for custom audio fixes
- Cons
- Real-time recording
- No automatic tags
- Slow for big libraries
- Manual export required
Step 1: Download and install Audacity on your computer (available for Windows, macOS, and Linux).
Step 2: Launch Audacity.
Step 3: In Audacity, navigate to "Edit" and select "Preferences".
Step 4: In the Preferences window, go to the "Devices" section. Choose the appropriate audio recording device (typically your system's soundcard) under "Recording".
Step 5: Play the Apple Music track you want to record on your computer.
Step 6: Click the "Record" button in Audacity to start recording the audio in real-time.
Step 7: When the track has finished playing, click the "Stop" button in Audacity to end the recording.
Step 8: Edit the recorded audio if necessary, applying effects or making adjustments.
Step 9: Export the project as an MP3 file by going to "File" > "Export" > "Export as MP3".
Step 10: Customize the MP3 export settings and save the file in your desired location.
For the best recording and exporting of Apple Music to MP3, consider exploring the following recording software options:

ViWizard Audio Capture is a simple, effective tool for recording Apple Music directly to MP3. Unlike Audacity, it's more of a "set-and-forget" method. It still records in real time, but all you need to do is press Play in Apple Music. You can trim, merge, or remove parts afterward, and it automatically splits tracks from a playlist. It works with the Web Player, iTunes, or the Apple Music app on both Windows and Mac. It's ideal for small collections, ringtones, or quick edits before moving tracks into DJ or video software. Compared to ViWizard Apple Music Converter Converter, it's better suited for smaller projects or custom cuts.
A multifunctional audio recording tool that captures any sound playing on your computer, including streaming music, live radio, game sounds, background music, and online meetings, with built-in auto-splitting and advanced editing features to save recordings in MP3, WAV, and other formats while maintaining the highest quality and embedding track details.

Step 6: ViWizard will start capturing the audio in real-time. You'll see a recording progress bar.
Step 7: Once the track finishes playing, ViWizard will stop recording. You can find the recorded MP3 in the specified output folder.
Way 11: Download Apple Music as MP3 with Playlists.Cloud + SoulSeek (Alternative Method)
Community-supported method for converting playlists to MP3
- Platform: Web (Playlists.Cloud), Windows/macOS/Linux (SoulSeek)
- Function: Export Apple Music playlists → manually find MP3s
- Formats: MP3 (via SoulSeek)
- Price: Free
- Speed: Slow, manual process
- Metadata: Depends on source
- Best for: Advanced users familiar with manual MP3 downloads
Some users take a different DIY route to download Apple Music tracks as MP3. Instead of converting directly, they use Playlists.Cloud to export their Apple Music library to a text file, then use SoulSeek to look for and download the MP3 versions. It works, but it's far from perfect — manual searches, occasional missing tracks, mislabeled files, and inconsistent bitrates. If you're already familiar with SoulSeek, it can be a clever workaround. But for speed and reliability, ViWizard Apple Music Converter is still the easier method for batch downloading.
- Pros
- Free method
- Works without converters
- Flexible for experienced users
- Cons
- Slow and manual
- Missing or wrong files
- Mixed quality
- Not beginner friendly
Step 1: Go to Playlists.Cloud and sign up or log in. Once logged in, select Apple Music and authorize the app to access your account.
Step 2: Use the tool to export your Apple Music playlists as a text file. This will include the list of tracks you want to convert.
Step 3: Download and install SoulSeek, a file-sharing tool for searching and downloading MP3s.
Step 4: In SoulSeek, search for the tracks from your exported playlist. Once found, download the MP3 versions.
Step 5: After downloading, organize your files and transfer them to your device or music software.
Way 12: Convert or Download Apple Music to MP3 with ViWizard Music Playlist Transfer + AllToMP3 (Advanced Alternative)
Efficient full-library transfers and batch conversion from Apple Music to MP3
- Platform: Windows, macOS
- Function: Transfer Apple Music playlists → download MP3 via another service
- Formats: MP3
- Price: AllToMP3 free; transfer tools may require subscription
- Limitations: Multi-step; AllToMP3 may be unreliable
- Best for: Users moving playlists to another platform first
Some people take a multi-step approach to getting Apple Music songs as MP3s. Instead of converting outright, they use a music transfer tool like ViWizard Music Playlist Transfer to move playlists to another platform such as YouTube, SoundCloud, or Deezer, then download them using AllToMP3. AllToMP3 was once the most popular MP3 downloader but has stopped working for many users, forcing people to search for alternatives with similar functionality.
The workflow is effective but lengthy: transfer, confirm, then download. AllToMP3 is free, but ViWizard Transfer or similar tools may require a subscription for unlimited transfers. Servers can also be unreliable. For most users, ViWizard Apple Music Converter remains the faster, more reliable, and more efficient choice.
A reliable and easy-to-use music transfer tool to move playlists, songs, albums, and artists between 7 major music services like Spotify, Apple Music, TIDAL, Deezer, YouTube Music, Amazon Music and Qobuz with unlimited music selection and powerful features to help you recreate your music collection across different platforms.

- Free MP3 downloads via AllToMP3
- Can move playlists to other platforms
- Works when other methods fail
- Cons

Step 4: Use AllToMP3 to download the tracks from the transferred playlist in MP3 format. Paste the playlist URL into the tool and click Download.
Step 5: Once the tracks are downloaded, organize them and transfer them to your preferred music library or device.

Pro Tip: Comparing the Most Popular Apple Music-to-MP3 Methods
Is It Legal to Convert Apple Music to MP3?
It depends on where you live and how you plan to use the converted files. Apple Music tracks are protected by DRM, and removing this protection might break copyright laws like the DMCA in the U.S. or Apple's Terms of Service. In some places, converting music for personal use is allowed, but it's still legally risky. Always check your local laws to be sure.
Will My Apple Music Tracks Still Work After Conversion?
No, Apple Music tracks are tied to your subscription. Once you cancel, you'll lose access to them. However, if you convert the songs to MP3, you can keep them. Just remember, this goes against Apple's rules and might have legal consequences.
Does Converting Apple Music Lower the Sound Quality?
Yes, converting from Apple's AAC format to MP3 can reduce sound quality because of double compression. To keep the quality as high as possible, use a higher bitrate like 320 kbps during conversion. While it won't match the original, the difference may not be noticeable to most listeners.
What Tools Can I Use to Convert Apple Music, and Are They Safe?
Tools like ViWizard, Sidify, and Noteburner can remove DRM and convert Apple Music to MP3 or other formats. These tools are generally safe, but using them could violate Apple's terms. If you stick to personal use and don't share the files, the risk is lower, but caution is still needed.
Can Apple Tell If I Convert Apple Music to MP3?
Apple doesn't actively monitor for DRM removal, but sharing the converted files could lead to penalties. To stay safe, keep the MP3 files for personal use only and avoid uploading or distributing them.
Conclusion
To wrap it up, all the ways are great options to convert Apple Music to MP3 effortlessly. But if you want to convert protected Apple Music files, you need to use a professional Apple Music to MP3 converter like ViWizard Apple Music Converter or an audio recorder like ViWizard Audio Capture. And if you are caring much about the output music quality, you are recommended to go for ViWizard Audio Converter instead of other solutions, as ViWizard Apple Music Converter can keep highly quality while converting Apple Music files to MP3.
