If the files were located within the media folder they should be moved to the trash. If you empty the trash then they're gone for good.

How can I recover music I accidentally erased on my iPhone? How do I add music back to my music list I erased by mistake. I intended to only erase the download to create space on my phone but I pressed erase by mistake. I only have an iPhone & iPad, not a macbook. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Will I be able to get my music back? If my Apple Music lapses and my music is deleted, will it be back after I pay or will I have to download all my songs again?
