You can rip audio from YouTube in the easiest way. I have a bunch of playlists that I’ve crafted over the years and when I moved to Apple Music I was disappointed to see my local library copies of those files replaced with Apple Music’s versions. It seemed to be totally arbitrary and, importantly, the play count, rating, etc. was different on my local library copies then it was on the Apple Music versions of those songs. In the above, I know that I have a copy of Can’t get There from Here in my local library, so not sure why the Apple Music one was substituted in my playlist. If it’s not Apple Music, it just adds it to the Local Files version of the playlist.Checks each song in the active playlist to see if it’s local or Apple Music.Creates a new playlist called “$playlistname Local Files.”.Select/start playing a song in the playlist you want to work with.I poked around the venerable Doug’s Scripts for a while but couldn’t quite find what I needed so I wrote this script which: Anyway, I want my local version in there so I can track stats, etc.
