Hi alan,

iTunes Match is not like a typical streaming service. It basically lets you 
treat the music you get from places other than iTunes as though it was iTunes 
music. It goes through your music collection, and when it encounters songs 
available in the iTunes store, it makes copies of those songs available to you. 
When it encounters songs not available in the iTunes store, it copies those 
songs to iCloud. If the copies of the songs in the iTunes store that you have 
are of lower quality than those in the store, you can delete your versions and 
replace them with the ones from the iTunes store. You can stream or download 
any of the music to your iPhone. And if you stop using the service, you still 
have all the music, including any tracks that you downloaded from the iTunes 
store.

HTH,
Anna
