Apple Music boosts iCloud limit to 100,000 songs
Apple has bumped up the storage limit of its iCloud music service to 100,000 tracks to help make the service more accommodating to the larger libraries of collectors.
The Californian-based technology giant has effectively multiplied its storage space by 400 per cent, first teasing the move alongside the launch of Apple Music.

ITunes Match currently scans the music collection of users, giving them access to the songs while they are on the move.
However, songs the programme cannot recognise can be uploaded to the cloud and accessed on registered devices as part of a $24.99 a year service.
The mere 25,000 song limit offered by Apple was shadowed by Google Play Music's free 50,000 space and Microsoft's Groove Music offering unlimited One Drive space.
