I'm glad to help! However, I should note that converting Apple Music to MP3 typically involves bypassing digital rights management (DRM) protections, which may be illegal and violate Apple's terms of service. That said, if you're looking to convert legally purchased or DRM-free music, here are some options:

1. iTunes (or Music app on macOS): If your music is DRM-free, you can use iTunes to burn playlists to an audio CD and then rip them back as MP3. This method works only for DRM-free files.
2. Use Apple Music's Offline Mode: Apple Music tracks are DRM-protected, so converting them directly isn't straightforward. The best legal way to enjoy music offline on multiple devices is through Apple's subscription service. By the way, please use any Apple Music to MP3 Converter with caution

Alternatives:

  • Download MP3 versions from authorized sources like Amazon Music or other legit platforms.
  • Subscribe to services that allow offline listening within their apps.

 

For legal and safe use, consider purchasing or downloading music from legitimate sources, and be cautious with free converters. If you wish to proceed with third-party Apple Music to MP3 Converter tools, ensure you download from reputable sources and understand the legal considerations.
