Match Question

Just joined Match and understand at least I think! that the music still resides on my home laptop. On my pad and phone I have a little cloud sign next to each album.

But Im guessing here that I can only listen to this music if I have an internet connection, so if I'm on a beach somewhere chances are I cant listen to music and even if I do find a connection will have to pay to listen to my music as I need to pay the the necessary data charges to download it.

So at home with a wifi connection how can I easilt get the music onto my pad and phone?.....do I really have to laboriously click each cloud one at a tme by every album/song title?

Isnt there a quick way to download from the cloud match?

OK thanks! guess you only have to do it once so I better start clicking.

If you're at home with the computer... just plug in the cable and sync. iTunes Match won't be turned off by doing so, it just places local copies on your iPhone. You can also use the Wifi sync, which will be faster than downloading from Match but not as fast as USB.

iTunes Match isn't an either/or thing, it can be used in conjunction with USB syncing if you choose.

Thanks the 'links' to the music have all been copied to my pad and phone but the links contain no music thus for the need to download each album one at a time.
