Apple takes your music and see's if there is the same song in their database
and if it is they match it to that and songs they can not find in the
database are the ones that get uploaded to your iMatch data base to complete
the complement of your music. Note; if you do not have a title on your
song and some other factors they can not match it so then it get's uploaded
to your iMatch account.
