| Jan 11, 2012 at 11:10 | comment | added | Michiel | Ok, I just did a little test and I discovered the magic part of iTunes Match. When a file is deleted on the original computer (in my case, I had to delete it manually) iTunes is giving you the chance to delete it from iCloud too. I didn't check that option, and the song stayed in iCloud. So yes. If the original computer loses the files and the sons are uploaded to iCloud, the songs will still be available on your other devices. | |

Lets say the hard drive gets corrupted, and the files are lost, will iTunes match scan iTunes on the computer and remove songs from the library? (This is my consideration for using iTunes match) | |
