    You can 100% continue to purchase content and add to your library. Just because the apps have split (as they already have on Apple’s own platforms), does not mean you can not download purchased content or continue to purchase new content for download.

    Buy music from the iTunes Store If you don’t subscribe to Apple Music and you want to add your favorite songs or albums, you can buy and download music from the iTunes Store. And if you previously purchased items from the iTunes Store, you can download them to your authorized computers and devices (up to 10 total).

      I’m assuming the content you download has Apple DRM so you continue to rely on them? And when they do away with that service your ‘purchases’ are just files taking up disk space?

      A sarcastic, but genuine question (been reading about the Sony / Crunchyroll / Fun<something> over the last few days).
