Delete playlist but keep songs

Is there a way to delete a playlist on the iPhone apple music without deleting the songs in the playlist from your library?


every time I download a couple of songs, it creates a new playlist. I want the sons, but not all the playlists.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15

Yes, that is what I thought, however, when I download songs from Apple music, it creates a playlist based upon the album. I then cannot delete the playlist, without also deleting the music.

This is not a very useful way to manage music, as I now have about 50 playlists.
