I have been personally satisfied with iTunes Match since its launch in our region. Thanks to the use of current Apple TV i more computers and iDevices are a possibility for me to listen to music in iCloudadvantageous. Among the shortcomings for Czech users who have previously purchased multimedia, for example, on a US account in iTunes Store, I see, for example, the impossibility of getting into Czech andCloudfor music videos or some titles, probably due to regional copyright.
On the other hand, the good news is that previously purchased titles that can no longer be purchased or downloaded as previously purchased ( see my previous article ), withCloudwill appear as replaced. However, I would like to dedicate this article to one unpleasant thing that I discovered with this service and which I would like to point out in time. Simply put, what iTunes Match replaces for you may not be the song that you recorded from your legally purchased CD!
In 1994, I bought it as a souvenir during a trip to the Balearic island of Mallorca music CD of classical music, which was played inside of the Dragon Caves complex in the cavernous music hall there. As the publisher is a smaller company from Palma, I did not expect that the collection could be recognized by the service Apple iTunes Match. But the opposite was true and all 13 CD tracks were replaced in better quality compared to my original tracks.

| Replaced album in iTunes Match | 5th track "CANON" from this CD |
Since this is pleasant music, suitable even for the Christmas holidays, I used an amplifier connected by optics to Apple TV and had this album playing in the background during Christmas Eve dinner. What a disappointment it was with track #5 ( Canon in D Major by Johann Pachelbel ). Instead of a pure track like on my original CD, a paid service Apple iTunes Match used a song from probably some erotic movie to replace it, where we can hear it in the background the whole time in French.ancin Uzbek, the sighs of a loving couple, including probably another woman... I prove that this is not a New Year's Eve joke (although it could be understood that way) by showing samples of the last minute of the original and the replaced Match file.

Much satisfaction, happiness and fun in 2012 not only with the service Apple iTunes Match wishes Miloslav Hofman.
Look on the bright side, Christmas dinner wasn't so boring :))
:D :D :D It's to the beat :D
Beauty … classical music and sex …
Beautiful fail, even if you don't have children :D something tells me that they wouldn't forget this Christmas ;)
Well, that's it.onec :-DDDD
It wasn't a sexual act in the background, it was Jesus being born.
:-)
Unbelievable, at the same time Apple she is so prudish. If it wasn't for your serious posts here, I really think this is a New Year's Eve prank.
But this is just the original, you bought the censored pressed version back then.
I would probably contact you apple. It's a mistake they should remove. I have a special experience here - yesterday I ripped from the original CD - JMJ one song is uploaded, but it is exactly the same as what they have in iTunes. What I really don't understand.
I thought that everything that Match takes is also on iTunes. But I can't find this there at all. I wanted to play a demo right there from there.
2 Roman: I also couldn't find this replaced song with them after various searches (even though it is actually there in many mutations). But it's true, I'm not really making it up, it would be a very embarrassing joke on my part.
I also link below to a video where the song plays via iTunes directly from Apple iCloudu:

Interesting. I have a lot of music purchased on US iTunes Store and it accepted everything without any problems under my Czech account. If I delete some of the music purchased in the US and download it again, then my CZ AID is in the info. That was one of the things I was interested in how it would be. Another thing I was interested in was replacing the music in better quality. It is common for older recordings to be released in remastered versions, remastering is not always successful, it depends on whether it is a remaster from the original tape, or a remaster of an already mastered carrier and also who and how they approach it. I have a complete Iron Maiden CD at home that I bought in the early days when CD players were a rarity in our country. These recordings don't play outright badly, but they're not great either. However, you can buy remastered versions that play much better. On iTunes Store are these new versions of the recordings. The advantage of iTunes Match is the replacement of mp3 recordings with AAC 256kbps, but this is not as noticeable a benefit in quality as replacing an older recording with a remastered recording. Personally, I consider this, along with the ability to have the same library everywhere, which I have backed up, to be the biggest advantage. But of course, not everything is ideal, see. this article.
Anyone can be judged in the States. In this case, it would probably not be a problem to demand compensation for psychological harm in the case of a minor, for a complaint filed by his parents.
Hello, the links to the files with the replaced mp3 are no longer functional... would it still be possible to upload it somewhere? I'd love to hear it. Thank you.
