Hi, Regarding syncing of your various iDevices, as long as you turn iTunes Match on for the given device, there is no specific sync required. All Playlists and music is handled through the Cloud. If you modify a playlist on your Mac, it is modified on your other devices that are connected to the same AppleID controlled iTunes Match account. The main limitation you’ll have here is iTunes Match is only for music, any DVDs you rip with movie or TV content can only be stored locally thus using up HD space.
