I have noticed that there are several albums available in iTunes Match where the artwork is missing. How can I get the artwork? This is on my iPhone.

On my computer, there are only maybe 30 songs where the cloud icon shows yet iTunes Match shows over 7100 out of 13,000 songs. Why do these 7100 songs show on my iPhone but not on my computer? How do I get the higher bitrate?

I am happy that I can finally get the Complete Depeche Mode in 256Kbps because it was never available in iTunes + and there are just a few missing songs.

I think I found the answer to the artwork missing on the phone. First delete the album from iTunes on the computer. You will know if it's been matched by iTunes or not if you see the cloud symbol on the iPhone. Once the files are deleted in iTunes on the computer, you will see the download symbol to download them again from iTunes. Once they are downloaded, the artwork will then show up on the phone or whatever you are using.
