Apple forces you to use Apple Music though :/

Apple Music also lets you do that

I don’t have Apple Music installed, tried this and it works fine for me.

Will this affect Apple Music subscription? If so then I'm out.

Fortunately/unfortunately this works iff you have an Apple Music subscription.

Uninstall iTunes and install the actual Apple Music app, it functions like the one on iOS or macOS

Amazingly you are still not free to use them on iPhone's Music app.
