I lost all my Apple Music - can this be restored with new payment ?

If you are quick enough, to add a new payment method to your account, your Library may still be available once the subscription becomes active again, but there is no time frame for this, so don't expect it to still be there.

Of course. Its a subscription. Do you get free access to gyms?

To delivered newspapers?

All subscriptions cost money. This is in no way new.

Did you think they were just giving away millions of songs for free?

Yes. If the subscription stops or is ended for any reason the music library stemming from the subscription is removed.

Tracks obtained from the subscription service are not yours to keep, you only have access to them while the subscription is active.

You pay to have access. That's the way subscriptions work.

If you want to keep the songs you get, you need to buy them outright. Then you don't need to pay again.

If you get them from the subscription service, then they require an active subscription to access.

Seems like you aren't understanding how subscriptions work.

I believe from reading other threads on the topic that the window of opportunity might be 30 days.

I understand your point, but as for removing the library when you stop paying it's stupid, what would be the use of paying it again, to do everything again? Let's accept it
