Apple library in Apple Music app vanished

On my iPhone in my Apple Music app I seem to have only access to songs I purchased and downloaded. I can’t see anything in apple library ( the general one) or in radio .. there is suddenly nothing. If on a song I downloaded I click on show album it no longer shows the album. How to fix this

Add to library option gone I have Apple Music on my iPhone and the add to library option is now gone. I can only add a song to a playlist. The song itself doesn’t appear on my library, only in the playlist making the library more messier and more difficult to find songs. Is this a technical problem or have they just made an idiotic decision?

Downloaded music not showing up on Apple Music library Downloading music to my iPad, seems to download fine. Go to play downloaded music only and the downloaded tab under library is missing. If you go to edit, it’s there as an option to have listed under the library tab but it doesn’t show up no matter how you have that set. It also seems that I can’t just hit play while offline and let it just play the downloaded songs. Literally as though they aren’t there. I have updated to latest iOS and have deleted and re installed the Apple Music app. I have all of our shared devices synced. I’ve done the best an aging gen x’er can do. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Disappearing Songs I am using an iphone 11. I purchased an album, played it, fine. The next day half of the songs were missing. I tried searching in my library, my purchases, albums; checking for any downloads; checking hidden songs--to no avail. Sometimes all the songs are there, then on other days they're gone. When only half the songs are there, at the bottom of the screen it says "download complete album." So I hit that. It lists all the songs, but when I try to play them, they stop after a minute sample and then take me to the page where I can subscribe to Apple music. I don't want to subscribe to Apple Music. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when and how the missing songs appear or disappear.
