Apple has already notified its developers that they are going to erase the matched libraries of the iTunes Match service on Saturday. This erasing of the pre- release libraries is again being done related to the new release of iTunes match. After missing out the previous deadline, Apple hasn’t confirmed the exact date of the release of the iTunes Match. The $24.99-per-year service couldn’t take off last time in the month of October.
Apple also confirmed that it will not delete the existing iCloud libraries for this purpose. Developers have been instructed to turn off their iTunes match functionality on their computers and iOS devices. This can be done by selecting the option “Turn Off iTunes Match” available under the “store” menu in iTunes on a Mac or PC. But the method is a bit different in your iOS device. Here just open the native “Settings” Application and chose “Music” and turn off iTunes match. This feature can also be turned off on an Apple TV under the “Music” option.
It might affect the audio files in your system. So Apple suggests keeping a backup regularly. Do not delete the music files that are added to iCloud from your computer. The last time Apple made such an update was in the month of last October. But since they couldn’t release it on the expected date, no such confirmation about the dates have come up this time. The iTunes Store’s welcome page still pops up the same message that iTunes Match is “Coming Soon”.
