iTunes match download all

[anthdci]

I have put iOS6 on my iphone and i can see the music app has now changed. I use my phone often on the underground train where I lose signal quite often so I don't want to stream everything. I only have about 20gb of music so they can easily all go on my phone. Is there a way to download my roughly 2000 songs in one go, the quickest I have found so far is going through each able and pressing the cloud button at the top but i still have loads of albums to work through.

Just put them all in a playlist, scroll to the bottom and click the cloud.

Then why use iTunes Match at all?

Just hook you phone up to iTunes and select "All Music".

You seem to be making things much harder then they have to be.

Why do you have iTunes Match if you're just gonna store it all on your phone? :S

Apart from getting free higher quality songs.

exactly that.

exactly that.

Then you are using it incorrectly.

Do all your upgrading on your matched iTunes, then synch your phone.
You don't have to have match on both the PC and the phone.
