I can't download songs in IOS6 from iTunes Match on my iPod and other complaints...

1) Since I upgraded, it takes like 15 minutes to view music from iTunes match onto my iPod, then has no "download" button like before. Instead, when I try to play a song it just DOESN'T PLAY. What a tease! Why is this like this?

While I'm on the subject,

2) Why does iTunes match replace explicit versions of albums I have with the clean versions? That *****! Is there a way around that, like, can I select a preference so all Beastie Boys songs are explicit? I'm 30 years old - I think I can handle the occasional cuss.

And finally,

3) How to you unsubscribe from this service? Too many complaints and not worth even $2/month.

I love Apple, but I have an iPod primarily to play music. If it is unable to perform that function, why make it? I've been a loyal customer for over 10 years and have purchased three laptops, an iPad, three iPhones, and had an iPod since they were introduced to the market. I also convinced my parents and say nothing bad about your company. Until now. Fix this, Apple, or this poor man will no longer justify spending money on your products.

Update:

How do you delete iTunes match? I clicked on "do not renew" or whatever from my account, but it doesn't expire 'till March 2013. I can't wait that long to listen to music. I turned "match" off on all my devices on my account and closed out all itunes and settings applications just like customer support told me to do after I waited an hour to talk to no one who could help.

My BRAND NEW iPod touch 5th generation is still having the same problem. I can only see what music I formerly had in my iTunes match account, but can't listen to any of it, including the 47 songs my library is supposed to have.

Come on, Apple. I really just want to listen to my music, unedited, on a device I hooked up to a computer with a USB cable.

Please help.

Do you have an Apple Store nearby? You might be fit from a visit to a Genius Bar for some hands-on help.

I have had problems with iTunes Match my problem now sorted.

If you have cd,s that you have imported not from match but from your own collection or lent cd,s

You need to delete them and reimport them do not play highlight all songs from imported cd

Go to advanced settings and convert to ACC files you may get 2 copies of each song on pc but they

Will be ok on iPod iPhone or iPad and should go on to each device via cloud before I did this

I had 45 cd,s missing now they are all back I think converting to ACC files get rid of DM Rights.

Hope this helps someone.
