Apple Music is one of the most popular streaming music services in the world. It is a monthly subscription, which offers the registered users three-month free trial period. Subscribers can access to the entire Apple Music catalog, listen to any music you've purchased, listen to Beats 1 radio, save Apple Music songs to your library and listen offline, upload Apple Music tracks to iCloud Music Library for access on all your devices.

Apple Music is compatible with iOS devices, Android devices and Apple TV with Music app installed. Besides, members can access to Apple Music library via iTunes on Mac or Windows PC. Apparently, Apple Music files can't be played unless iTunes and Apple Music apps used.

That's because all the Apple Music files downloaded from Music app are protected by Apple's Fairplay DRM protection, which prevents the subscribers from transferring and playing the Apple Music tracks on other devices and media players. Remarkably, on the 2018 WWDC conference, Apple announced that Apple Music subscribers can listen to songs from a computer using a web browser without having to fire up iTunes.

However, it's not a full-blown iTunes replacement yet. The performance is not steady. So is there any other way to play Apple Music without iTunes on computer? Don't worry, once the DRM is removed from the downloaded Apple Music tracks, you can easily enjoy Apple Music files on your computer without iTunes.
