Apple One with iTunes Match

We are considering Apple One with Music +, but we have stayed away from Music + because we have hundreds of CDs, some of which are definitely not in Apple's music library (e.g. purchased from street performances or students at university performances). We have been using iTunes Match for many years. What happens to our iTunes Match and personal library when we join Apple One? What happens if we later decide to discontinue that? Do we lose our personal music library?

Hi,

Apple Music includes iTunes Match features. As both use iCloud Music library, the change will be seamless and you would be able to manage your library as before. The main difference is that you will have access to Apple Music library. You will find that most of your matched and purchased music will availability to stream or download as lossless. Back up to existing library before changing your subscription.
