Thanks, Harry, I had not looked in the Library submenu, but I now found the iCloud library update option and iTunes seems to be happily matching/uploading songs.

You can then see if your library looks more sorted. If not, you can simply go to iTunes -- Preferences and unlock Use iCloud Music Library then Ok, close the itunes app then reopen, go again to iTunes -- Preferences and tick Use iCloud Music Library and then OK. iTunes then begins anew to configure your iCloud Music Library. Saying that iTunes Music has still a few bugs seems a considerable understatement...

It says “iCloud needs upload”, below is one example: Penny Lane, iCloud Need upload, Time 3:02, The Beatles, Album The Beatles 1967 - 1970 [Disc 1], Genre Rock, Track # 2 of 14, not loved I just let Jaws speak it and copied this directly from the Jaws speech history. If I right click on the song I see no option to upload the track, but I do have a “Remove download” option in the menu that comes up. In the iTunes preferences in the General tab I do have “Show Apple Music” checked and there is also a checkmark next to an item called “iCloud Music Library” followed by my Apple Id email. I like the idea of Apple Music and love the SIRI integration, but I do agree with many reviews and opinions that it is complicated and apparently there are still issues which need to be fixed. I used to strictly manage what music I have on my iPhone via iTunes, but after I had to do a factory restore after briefly running a couple of early versions of the iOS 9 beta and downgrading again to 8.4, I have not yet synced any music to my iPhone manually. If I open the music app and go to the “My Music” tab, I see a bunch of music which is all stuff I bought from iTunes, but nothing else. Shouldn’t the music on my laptop which is in my iTunes library upload to my iCloud Music Library and then be available on my iPhone?
