Apple has not made an official announcement about the rollout. Some users claim that they have been able to upload more than 25,000 songs in the library for iTunes Match and Apple Music.

Kirk McElhearn, Macworld's iTunes expert, revealed this information through his personal blog post. McElhearn also posted in his Twitter account to spread the news.

Earlier this year, Cue revealed on his Twitter account, that Apple is working on boosting the limit of Apple Music from 25,000 to 100,000 songs.

In September, Apple launched their new operating system called iOS 9 but no word was given regarding the limit increase. However, Cue said that Apple was still working on the matter and the company is planning to release the feature before the year ends.

Apple Music users who store more than 25,000 titles to their music libraries can take advantage of the launch of Apple Music beta on the wireless speaker systems of Sonos, where users can stream their music collection from their Apple Music account. Sonos users can access their music library, control their Apple Music account, and receive new music recommendations in the feature called "For You" via Sonos app. Apple Music beta version for Sonos will be available on Dec. 15.

Users who want to subscribe to iTunes Match need to pay $24.99 per year, and $9.99 a month for subscribers of Apple Music. While for those who want to subscribe the family plan, Apple is charging $14.99 per month.
