hi, ever since i enabled iCloud library & on my Phone its gotten so confusing...

i have always managed my own music by selecting the individual albums in iTunes for syncing,

but now when i go to the music sync tab i cannot manage it any more..

i know with the iCloud library what ever you change on your Computer it applies to your iDevice like editing playlists.

as for the rest of my music i would assume all my 9970 songs that art on my device will show up as in the cloud and the ones i actually have on my device will be still be there.

but if i wanted to remove albums from my device i would have to do it via the device not my computer with is frustrating.

and the options Add to my Music & Use for offline use is very confusing..

i know offline use means i store it on my phone.. but when i download my songs i assume they DRM 🙁

and as for the add to my music i assume that is the library shared across all my devices.

so what i am saying is there a way to use iCloud library with managing my synced DRM free songs with iTunes?

i like it when i change something in my playlists on my computer and it changes on my device.
and i like it that i can add music i don't have on the go to my library via apple music or download it through offline use. but i want to be able to manage my DRM free songs through iTunes sync but it won't let me aslong i have iCloud library enabled on my iDevice 🙁
