"Users will have access to their entire music library, whether they have downloaded the songs, bought them or extracted them from a CD," Apple said in a press release.

When Apple launches its new operating system this fall, iTunes will be split into three streaming media applications: Apple Music, Apple Podcasts and Apple TV. (The new MacOS, Catalina, will be available this fall as a free software update).

Apple says the new music app for Mac is "super-fast, fun and easy to use." It will have more than 50 million songs, playlists and music videos. ITunes Music Store is always there if you want to buy music.
