I’m using iTunes Match to sync my library to the cloud. If I decide to go use Apple Music is this doing the same thing with my library? I understand I get acces to all music available, but wonder if I’m not paying unnecessary for iTunes Match after starting Apple Music.
From Subscribe to iTunes Match - Apple Support:
If you have an Apple Music membership, you get all of the benefits of iTunes Match, plus access to the entire Apple Music catalogue. You can also get a Family Membership to share the catalogue with your family members. Find out more about joining Apple Music.
You don't need to keep iTunes Match if you switch to Apple Music. I would however recommend that you have at least one computer that has all of your music stored locally and have that library backed up to a second drive for security.

Hi,
Going from iTunes Match to Apple Music should be seamless as you already use iCloud music library and your existing library has been matched or uploaded. Apple Music includes. iTunes Match features.
You will need to turn off auto renewal for match.

Thanks guys!
As my iTunes Match just renewed, I’ll stick to that for now.

You're welcome. 🙂
