No Longer Able to Purchase Songs on Apple Music

Apple Music no longer allows the purchase of songs and albums directly within the Apple Music app. Instead, Apple has decided to separate the buying of music from the listening experience. To buy music, you must now open up iTunes on your computer or device and purchase tracks from there. This change was made so that users would have a more streamlined experience when searching for new music to listen to, without having to worry about making purchases within the same app.

After your purchase is complete, you’ll be able to access the music in your library for streaming or offline playback.
