Itunes Music Match Updating EXTREMELY Slowly 18-07-2021

Thought Id make some changes on my PC and update songs in itunes, mostly just adding old songs from old CD's. Today I have been frustrated by how SLOW itunes is matching my music. Its been a few hours and I've seen just a few songs out of many sync across to my iphone. I'm convinced its the icloud server as my PC and internet are very fast. Is this common? It is Sunday after all but it makes no sense why syncing is virtually non existent today. I've ended the sync and restarted many times and sometimes there is a tiny bit of movement.

Apple just billed me on July 27. It is totally unacceptable to be paying and the itunes match process unusable. It takes more than 10 hours per song.

Obviously Apple is having a lot of issues with their servers.

I'm experiencing exactly the same behavior. Very frustrating, especially since I paid for the service yesterday and it does not seem to be working at all…

Same here, 24 hours later and about half of the 150 songs are still in the "waiting" status.

It is worse than before. Now iTunes Match is completely out of service. It does not match any song. We are paying for nothing and Apple is ignoring us.

I tried this again today and it not only worked, but worked quickly

Tried to the cloud music library sync one more time and it worked - across all devices. Quickly. I just wish we knew what this is all about for the next time happens.
