I've got roughly 5K tracks in my iTunes library and I subscribe to Apple Music. My current job has horrible reception in the building and I'd like to listen to the music in my iTunes library. What's the best way to download all the tracks onto my iPhone. If I just hit download on the main music library the downloads start to freeze since it's too many tracks. Any help would be much appreciated.

Easiest way is make sure your on wifi (throw it into airplane mode and turn wifi back on) start the download and go to bed. It will do what it needs to do whilst your sleeping.
 
Another way is to do old school syncing using iTunes. Don't bother about Downloading unless you have very good internet. Oh, assume you store your music on iTunes.
