What happens if I cancel my subscription to Apple Match? I don't see the point of it any more.

It seems Apple Match use to be

important but now with access to the Apple Music library, what's the point?

There are two services, one is called iTunes Match, the other Apple Music. If you have Apple Music you don't need iTunes Match as well. If you cancel iTunes Match (when you have Apple Music) you should see no change at all. If you are planning to cancel the only service you have make sure to download all matched/uploaded music content currently in the cloud before your subscription expires. You should backup your library too. Apple Music content won't play once that subscription expires, and again you lose content to matched/uploaded music that is only in the cloud.
