iTunes match under iTunes 12.2

I have the new iTunes (12.2.0.45) installed, have been using iTunes Match since it came out, but iTunes Match is no longer in the same place. iTunes Match pre 12.2.0 was not fully matching my CD collection, and signing out/in sometimes addressed the failure of iTunes Match to pick it up. I tried to locate the menu item, but it's not in the original place. The Help File buries the information, too, which is just as well since the information is completely misleading. Where did iTunes Match move to?

OS X Mavericks (10.9)

I was wondering this too, I was able to find it but it was greyed out and I couldnt do anything with it. The only thing I could find was an "Update iCloud Library" button which I think is the new iTunes match? Not completely sure but it seems to be working that way

iTunes > File > Library > Update iCloud Music Library. That would be what used to be iTunes > Account > Update iTunes Match. Because now Match is part of the iCloud Music Library, together with  Music. So now from there you can update it, or update both if you use both services. Also that article that Rysz linked below is very useful for better understanding the new situation...

Thanks! Not sure Apple did themselves any favors here by "simplifying" my options, but I will double check all the above.
