How to Import Apple Music to Traktor for DJing

Part 1. Can Traktor Work with Apple Music?

Apple Music streams its tracks and doesn't store them as downloadable files on your device. This streaming format isn't compatible with Traktor or similar DJ software. You might have tried accessing your iTunes library, which is handy if you've managed and stored your music through iTunes, but it doesn't help with the streaming content from Apple Music.

Here's where things get a bit tricky. While you can purchase music from the iTunes Store, which provides you with AAC files that are compatible with Traktor, buying individual tracks can become quite expensive over time. Instead, if you're looking for a more budget-friendly solution, you might want to consider using a tool like ViWizard Apple Music Converter.
