Legacy Windows iTunes password missing

I recently upgraded to an iPhone 16. About 90% of the music is no longer available to me. All this music looks to be my original iTunes library from 2005 created on a windows machine. My email at the time was a compuserve account, for which I apparently cannot remember the pw. Resetting the pw does not work as “cs.com” no longer exists. Is there a workaround for this? Please!! 🙏🏼 Thanks! 🙏🏼 🙏🏼

iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18

See If you forgot your Apple Account password - Apple Support. Even if you no longer have access to the mail service that hosted your email address it should still be possible to regain control of your account. Once that is done it will probably be a good idea to Change your Apple Account primary email address - Apple Support.
