iTunes: How to tell if Your Songs are Matched or Apple Music Downloads

• Launch iTunes.
• Select the My Music tab or Playlists tab. Either will work.
• Click the View drop down menu. It's on the right side of the iTunes window just below the search field. It shows your current view type; in my case, that's Songs, but it can also show Albums, Artists, Composers, or Genres.
• Click the Show Columns pop-up menu.
• Select iCloud Download.
• Select iCloud Status.

You can add status columns to show details about your iCloud music

You should now have two new columns in your personal library music views showing whether or not a track is available for download, and if the song has been uploaded to your iCloud Music Library is matched via iTunes Match, if it's purchased, or if it's from Apple Music.

Now it's easy to see if songs are purchased…

The iCloud Download column uses icons to show a song's status. A cloud with an arrow pointing down means you can download the song, a cloud with a slash through it means the item isn't eligible for upload via iTunes Match, and no icon means it's in your local iTunes library. If you want to download a song to your iTunes library, just click the Available for Download icon to suck it through the Internet and onto your hard drive.

…Apple Music, streaming, or on your local drive

Apple has a few more iCloud status icons, too. A cloud with an exclamation point means the song upload failed or the file is corrupt. An x means the song file has been removed, a dotted outline cloud means the song is waiting to be processed by iTunes Match, and double clouds with a slash through them means the song is a duplicate.

• Available
• Duplicate
• Error
• Ineligible
• Removed
• Waiting

The iCloud Status column is pretty straight forward since it shows actual words instead of icons.

Adding a couple columns to your iTunes music display may not be as cool pop-up bubbles or Siri announcing song statuses for you, but it's still pretty cool because now you can see at a glance where songs are and whether or not they're from Apple Music.
