When Apple first revealed iTunes Match (http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/06/apple-announces-itunes-in-the-cloud/) -- the service that lets you add your own, non-Apple purchased music to iTunes -- the 25,000 song limit probably seemed huge. That was way back in 2011, however, and Apple VP Eddy Cuehas revealed (https://twitter.com/cue/status/614795533236854785) that when iOS 9 (http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/08/ios-9-public-beta/) arrives this fall, Match will support up to 100,000 songs. Cue reminded followers that Apple Music (http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/08/apple-music/) will also get Match-like capabilities, meaning you can fill in any missing streaming music with your own tracks. Though the service will launch tomorrow with a 25,000 song limit, it too will support 100,000 songs when iOS 9 comes out.
