Earlier today, Apple released Beta 9 of iTunes 10.5, and wow: for the first time since they rolled out the beta, iTunes is actually mirroring our songs to the cloud. Previously, it would just hang indefinitely. So if you’ve had problems with iTunes Match before, give it a shot now: it seems to be working fine.
Note, however, that it takes forever. Didn’t Steve Jobs said it would mirror in seconds?
