Hello... I've got 500G of music that's been piling up here on my macs, for ages.
Since I now use Apple Music, I would doubt I need to have probably 95% of this on my hard drive. What's the most efficient and effective way (if there is one) of getting rid of the music i have on my file, and replacing it with the identical music on Apple, in the Cloud?
Thanks in advance for your help

Backup your whole library to an external drive for security.
See Identify cloud status icons in your music library on your Mac or PC - Apple Support.
Check that all of your music is marked as either Matched or Uploaded.
Select content that you want to offload, right-click, and use Remove Download.

Enable the cloud download and cloud status columns in the Songs view. (See the link posted previously.) Content in the cloud will show with a cloud. Check the status column for content that isn't matched or uploaded as this won't successfully play or redownload if you delete your copy.

How to I know what items are already downloaded though.... sorry if I'm being dense here, and thanks.
