I am getting a new iPhone 14 and am preparing by doing a backup. In the settings I see that my iTunes library isn't included. Does anyone have info on how to get my library of songs into an iCloud backup?

Purchased content itself, like iTunes purchases, are not backed up. The record of their purchase is. But the actual iTunes content or App Store app is downloaded from the online store source when restoring a backup.
