Read more about iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match. I haven't yet installed Lion or the new iTunes or iOS 5. I decided today I don't need iTunes Match. I can afford it, but I don't really care about music so much that I need it everywhere instantly. I still have a lot of Patrick's music on my computer that I wouldn't need or want to have matched and available everywhere. And nowadays I'm likely to make new purchases through iTunes. Installed iTunes 10.5.1 on my iMac.
