Downloading All Music in iTunes Match

iTunes Match is pretty cool. Not without its faults, but still pretty cool.

One thing I couldn’t see how to do was to simply download all my iCloud music onto my device.  Only individual playlists, artists etc. I have a 64GB iPhone so there is definitely plenty of room for my library.

Here’s my workaround solution: basically, you create a new Smart Playlist named ‘iCloud’ which simply matches all music that is in iCloud.  Make sure you set the match rules to ‘any’, and give the three conditions I have so everything is matched.

Then on your device you can view the playlist, scroll to the bottom and hit download. Nice :)
