Tom: I have had the same questions and haven't yet found the answer. At one point, I did find a number of songs in the Songs portion of Apple Music, but that disappeared a couple of years ago. Now I look in the Music Settings. I also have music set to download to my phone when I add things to play lists. Like you, I have a lot of partial albums and some scattered collections. I did submit feedback to Apple through their main feedback form at: www.apple.com/feedback That form is quite extensive with many questions of what device you are using, which iOS version, and specific questions for specific issues. However, my feedback was for some notification of duplicate songs when I try to add things to my play lists. Now, when I add something which may already be in a play list, the song is added without any notification. I would like something that pops up on the More screen that says which play list a song is in, so I don't add it again. Or, perhaps a message asking if I want to add the song to a play list again. I'm sure I have several dozen duplicate entries in my 500 plus song play lists, but the only way to know is to go by the play list line by line and page by page, and keep track of entries, which makes my brain hurt just thinking about. Sure, I could use iTunes on a computer, but like you, I have long since given up on iTunes.
