iTunes Match Bug: Duplicate Songs

The new Music app seems to have a lot of issues with iTunes Match, but this one just occured for me and it's really annoying: All my downloaded songs are displayed twice, once as the downloaded version and once available for download. Anyone else had this happen and got it resolved? Otherwise I will be left with bug reporting this and hoping this is fixed soon -_-

Besides the fact that you cannot delete albums and artists anymore this makes the new music app really bad for match users :-(

PS: Funny, I just looked at the screenshot and noticed that the itunes match version of the song is actually one second longer than my local version... I am starting to be very confused.

I'm so disapointed with apple attitude. So many posts on this topic. Different devices and different versions of iOS. But nothing is done to solve the issue. Any solutions suggested here are just hiding the bug. Even complete clean install of iOS and OSX didn't help me.(((

Hey 2013! It's 2016 and Apple still hasn't fixed this!

Seriously!! I mean, who at Apple is in charge of this product/service? I bought iMatch immediately to gain access to my scattered music databases over home, work, laptop computers, which I thought was awesome ... Now my library is a cloud of duplicates and "grayed out" songs not loaded for some reason (no matter how many times I turn iMatch on/off, deauthorized/authorize, etc.).

Come on, Apple ... Get your stuff together.
