How can I transfer music from my iPad to iPhone without Apple Music subscription. The music is all downloaded from my own cds
iPad mini, iPadOS 14
Hi Rudymutt,
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. Sounds like you're interested in finding out if you can share the music which is on your iPad with your iPhone, without an Apple Music subscription.
To place music, which you've imported to a computer from your CDs, onto a device without an Apple Music subscription, you have two options. One is to sync that device with the computer which the music resides on.
If your music is on a PC, you'll want to follow these steps: Use iTunes to sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with your computer.
If your music is on a Mac, you'll want to follow these steps: Sync music between your Mac and iPhone or iPad.
The other option: iTunes Match. iTunes Match allows you to have access to all of your music across all your devices, like Apple Music, but without access to the entire Apple Music catalog. You can read more about it here: Subscribe to iTunes Match.
Any questions on those steps just message back.
Enjoy the day!

Thank you. That was easy. I had a very difficult time getting my cd music from windows media player into the iTunes library on my computer. I was finally able to get the music folder in iTunes into the library. Then your advice sealed the deal. Thanks
Hello Rudymutt,
Glad to hear that you were able to get the music from your CDs into your iTunes Library.
If you have any questions down the road, we're only a message away.
All the best!
