is it possible to add Apple Music Songs on an old ipod?

hello everyone,

i want to buy an used ipod to listen music and avoid using my iPhone which is distracting a lot during work.

So the real question is : can i import apple music songs on an ipod? to be clear, i'm looking for an ipod in this order:

Ipod Nano 7th Gen (A1446)
Ipod Classic (A1238 but needs modding)
Ipod Nano 3th Gen (A1236 but needs modding)
Ipod Touch 7th.

The best option is obviously the touch one, but i want to buy a nano 7th because is widely available in my country and really cheap.

on classic and nano needs modding because i want to use my Airpods.

Thanks a lot

iPod nano

Depends on what you mean exactly by Apple Music songs. If you mean tracks obtained form the Apple Music subscription service, then:

• Ipod Nano 7th Gen (A1446) ============== NO

• Ipod Classic (A1238 but needs modding) ============== NO

• Ipod Nano 3th Gen (A1236 but needs modding) ============== NO

• Ipod Touch 7th. ============== YES.

You can get Apple Music subscription service tracks onto the iPod touch by logging into Media & Purchases with the Apple ID that holds the subscriptions.

If you mean songs in the Apple Music app on a computer, obtained from CDs or purchased from the iTunes Store or other sources, then they can be added to any of the iPods listed.
