Hey Chris, No worries. there's still a lot of confusion around just what the impact of Apple Music is going to be, which is why I was arguing in favor of caution. I do want to own music that I like, I do not want that music to have DRM protection. So, till I know for sure how Apple music will impact my purchased music, I'm staying clear of it. I hope you're able to get your stuff back. I don't think that Apple would deliberately take away content that has been legitimately purchased, so I imagine that there's a solution to your situation, though I have no idea what it would be.
