Yes, as long as the new phone is music capable, then you can download your stored tracks to your new phone from your music vault or from your memory card. When you transfer tracks, you will need to update your music subscription license for the new phone. If your new phone is not music capable, you won't be able to download your stored tracks to your phone and will need to cancel your subscription.
