![]() ![]() I've been there too CD's imported(which takes forever as we know), artwork scanned from CD cover and then let iTunes Match at the time smack me hard with new artwork.Įven now, with my imported CD's I have lost the original artwork when using Apple Music. I've been seeing if any other music playing application could be just that, a music playing application with all my content sealed off from Apple Music. That thought don't last very long as I also have music that is purchased in the iTunes Store that is DRM protected so that other music players won't touch them.

Once I had the same number of items in each of iTunes and the new Music I put the two machines side by side, arranged the new Music Unrated playlist in track name order, did the same on the old for 5 star and ticked off those, Repeat for 4, 2, 1 and then anything left was three so just did those in one edit. I dragged the contents of the iTunes media folders - there is usually more than one (eg 1 for Apple Music downloads, one or more for ripped music etc, maybe another for compilations etc). ![]()
