Record Label Information Missing From Purchased Songs

I have purchased numerous songs from iTunes and noticed it displayed some copyright info and realised it showed this copyright info on the iPhone music app as well.


I bought songs recently and realised it doesn't show up on the mac but it shows it on the iPhone.


Does anyone know why this happens? It's probably nothing and will automatically reappear, but I thought it was odd that all of a sudden it disappeared.

The same thing has happened to me, also just with recent purchases. I deleted and re-downloaded an album I already had (as a test) and the record company 'copyright' field in the 'file' tab disappeared. It's strange because there hasn't been a new version of iTunes for a while. This doesn't affect play or matter too much obviously (well, it will to the record companies) but it is odd.

I don't think the record companies care too much either. Tracks purchased in any online music store other than iTunes do not have that information. It seems to be unique to Apple.

I am having an issue with iTunes match. Any songs I purchase from the iTunes store do not show copyright on the get info tab in iTunes but they do on my iPhone so this is the same as original issue. However any songs I import from CDs in to my collection and match successfully to iTunes Match. I have manually added metadata to these tracks and they have the copyright field in get info tab in iTunes but do not show it on iPhone when iTunes Match is on.


What i mean by that is before iTunes Match was on if i dragged and dropped these ripped from cd tracks on to iPhone they show the record label. As soon as I turn iTunes match back on the version sent via iCloud to my iPhone does not show the record label even though it is the same track. And this same track when clicking get info in iTunes on my mac shows the copy right. I can't find an answer or explanation anywhere! any ideas?
