iTunes Match frozen on step two

[boldBud]

My newly-purchased iTunes Match is stuck on step two of the initial set up. It's stuck on checking the final song.

Any ideas?

So it eventually worked, just took a while.

Another quick question here. I asked about this at the Apple Store but didn't really get a good answer. I'll listen to a song. I won't download the song by clicking the little download cloud button. Looking at my usage, every time I listen to a new song, it takes up more room on my phone. I thought it would just play off the cloud?

Nope. Listening downloads it. You can stream your Match music on your Mac, but not on your mobile. Should be the other way around, I know.

Damn, really? I wanted it to create some more space on my phone because my music was taking up too much room.

Thanks for the answer
