Apple Music Bug - LOADS of songs "This so…

Glitch in Apple Music for most of library "This song is not currently available in your country or region" This is a convoluted problem I have been having with Apple Music for a few months now so please bear with me while I try and explain. Out of nowhere, a large portion of my songs in my library are "This song is not currently available in your country or region". Confused, I asked some friends with Apple Music in the same region as me (Australia), and the exact same songs in the exact same album in the exact same listing that are unavailable for me are available for them. Over the next few days more and more songs started to become unavailable. I began digging around Apple Music to understand what the issue is. First, the songs are most definitely available and are not region blocked. Second, if on iOS I click the three dots, then click "show album", then scroll down and click "Show complete album", the song that was unavailable is listed as available and is playable. I can then delete the song and redownload it and play without an issue. A similar thing happens when using iTunes on PC. The song, as an example, Wild for the Night by ASAP Rocky is listed as "unavailable" in my library, but if I search "Wild for the Night" in iTunes on Apple Music, I can play the song no problem. However, if I right click the song as it is playing and click "Show in Apple Music", I get the error "The item you have requested is not available in Apple Music in Australia", even though I am literally playing the song. The issue of "not available in your region" spans across all devices. I have tried resyncing my library/iCloud to no avail. Does anybody have any ideas on what is happening or how to fix it? It is not feasible to delete and redownload all the songs, as there are almost thousands that are unavailable. It also means I need to re-add them to my playlists manually. I tried creating a Smart Playlist to only include those that are not available in my region, but it only includes a select few for some reason. TIA, Marko

"this song is not currently available in your country or region", but only in library I have a problem with several songs (for example Жальменіна by Go_a), which are available to play after finding them using 'Search' function, but appear greyed out in playlist with an error message "this song is not currently available in your country or region". It is exactly the same song, as I've been trying to add precisely the one I was listening to. How can I add such song to playlist and why does this happen? The same thing happens when it is added to the library. It happens only for individual songs. The rest from this artist is available and working both under search and in library. Below follow the screens showing that I am indeed able to play the song, but appears like that both in playlist and library itself:

songs greyed out in library/playlists in apple music library Many of the songs I have in my playlists are greyed out and will not play. When I try to play them it gives me a message about them not being available in my region. However If I go to apple music they are still available and will play. It is like the link has been broken between the song in the library and the one in apple music. If I delete the song from my library I can re-add it, one at a time. What a nightmare this is because there are A LOT of them and they are removed from any playlists when they are removed in order to add them back. I have tried unsyncing/and resyncing (this actually made it worse). It is universal across all of my devices (iphone, ipad and and my PC computer). I have checked with others I know use apple music and most are having issues with this too. Does anyone have any solutions? HELP!
