Q: Why can't I have all my iTunes on my new phone (6s) ?
Help!! Why won't all my music transfer from my iPhone 5s to my new 6s? 77 albums and over 600 songs on my 5s, 35 albums on my new 6s?? The strange thing is some albums and songs that were not purchased through iTunes have showed up on my new phone and some iTunes purchases have not ?? Help!!

Yeah that's not so bad!
As far as your music goes, if they are song purchased through iTunes, you can redownload them free of charge.
If your old iPhone has all of your songs you can get them into iCloud using iTunes Match. iTunes Match looks at your music library and uploads all songs not purchased through iTunes into iCloud. This makes your entire library accessible from any of your devices, assuming they are all logged into the same Apple ID. I have not used it personally but according to Apple's website you can enable iTunes Match from your iOS device.
The only other way to retrieve your music is to buy third party software that will transfer music from an iPhone to a computer.
