What is the difference between the plus sign and the iCloud sign on a song?

I know that clicking the plus sign adds the song to your offline music repertoire, but what does clicking the iCloud symbol that pops up after the plus sign do?



Thanks!

The plus sign adds the song or album to your My Music library but it does not download. The cloud icon with the down arrow is what downloads the music for offline listening.
