Does Apple Match work when song info has been changed?
Many of my songs were recorded from LP albums, audio tapes, etc., at a low bit rate. I would like to use iTunes Match to upgrade them to a highher bitrate, so I don't have to re-record them all.
When I recorded them, I'm sure I did not use the exact same song titles, artist names, album names, etc., as whatever databases Apple uses. Also, even for songs that were recorded from CDs, I have since renamed some songs in my library (example: added "(live)" to song title to distinguish from other versions of the same song).
Will iTunes Match find the match for those songs? Does it match by title/artist/album or by musical content? Does it allow for "soft" or "fuzzy" match? For example, would iTunes Match find a match for "Simon & Garfunkle", "Bridge Over Troubled Water" if I recorded it from an LP and entered it as "Bridge Over Troubled Water (live) or "Simon and Garfunkle"?
If Apple matches strictly by title/name/album, will I or will I not get the updates at the higher bit rates?
