On my iTunes library, some CDs that I imported are more than one disc. For instance, the version of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album I have is two discs, so they're imported as Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (Disc 1), and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (Disc 2). When iTunes Match scans my library, will it recognize the album and store it in the cloud exactly as shown in the iTunes Store, or will it count against storage space since it's not labeled the same way? Will I need to label it as one album, and take out the Disc 1, and Disc 2 label?

If you want it matched, try to label it as closely as it's reflected in the iTMS. Regardless, matched or unmatched, it won't count against your iCloud space - it's uploaded "free of charge" either way.

Great thanks. I wasn't sure that if it wasn't labeled exactly the same way as on the iTunes store, it wouldn't get uploaded as part of my iTunes Match subscription when I get it, and that it would count against my storage. It only counts storage if I upload an album that's not listed on the iTunes Store, for instance, an AC/DC album I have?
