For example, in my library I have Linkin Park - Meteora.
In my library my songs are "Easier to Run" and "Hit the Floor" etc. But in Apple Music they are "Easier To Run" and "Hit The Floor".
I have thousands of songs and this problem occurs fairly regularly. Is there anything I can do about it? Other than "fixing" the song names on my actual source library?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Most albums match but there are some occasions when some tracks don't match. No clear reason for this. I have observed over the years that even if the complete album is matched, it is not necessarily with the same album version, Moore specifically problematic with older recordings where there has been more than one release over the years.
This is becoming more obvious with the introduction of Lossless tracks in Apple Music.

Hi Jim, oh ok - thanks for confirming. What I saw was probably a red herring then. Still, I have hundreds of Albums that are matched perfectly, and hundreds that have sometimes one sometimes more songs that couldn't be matched. Assuming there's nothing I can do to effect this algorithm?
I would have thought it'd be quite easy to match songs in a full Album.
Hi,
Apple uses Audio fingerprinting to determine song matches. Metadata is not used when matching tracks.

iTunes Match not matching songs with slight differing in captilization
