Wondering if anyone uses iTunes match? Do you like it ? I do not mind paying a fee to have my large iTunes library available on my iPhone but I cannot figure how many songs I have and if it is under the 25,000 song limit. Also wonder what happens if one has more than the limit?

I use it - and to be perfectly honest - I can't tell if I like it or not. I just haven't really noticed what it's done for me - except made some songs unavailable and added a lot of album art.

The other thing I'm wrestling with is all of my songs remaining in the cloud - even though I've downloaded them to devices. Nothing more frustrating than driving down the road in the boonies - unable to get a song to play because I'm off the grid.

Way... way too many specs to list.
Meh. It's useful when I stream music @ work, without it being on my laptop. But I have more than enough disk space not to really worry about it, I may drop it when it comes up for renewal.

It isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but all-in-all it's worth $25 a year to me to sync music (relatively easy) between 2 iPhones, 2 iPads and 3 Macs.

How does one determine how many songs they have on iTunes? What happens if that number is over the 25,000 limit on iMatch?

The 25,000 limit refers to non-iTunes purchased songs. So if you buy most of your music from iTunes, then you can hold a great deal more than 25,000 songs.
