Microsoft Photos is the free photo viewer and editor for Windows 10. With the new version of the Photos app, you can make a video slideshow with images, add background music and 3D effects to videos. Background music makes your video more interesting and dynamic, and it takes your video to the next level. The Photos app allows you to add AAC, ADTS, MP3, M4A, WAV, and WMA files as background music, but if you want to add an Apple Music song, you will get an error message. Adding Apple Music to the Photos app is not as direct as you think. Since Apple Music songs are in M4P format, which is protected by Apple’s FairPlay DRM, and you can only play them on authorized devices with the Apple Music app. To add your favorite Apple Music songs to Windows 10 Photos as background music, you should download Apple Music to a more common format, then you can add those songs to any device.
