this may not be the best method, but whenever I download new music, I always drag songs from the music app and drop them onto an external drive as a form of redundant backup. and if I need to reload songs to music, I can drag them from the external drive and drop them into the music app. that could be one way to move songs from one machine to another.
Thank you of the reply. I do have a lot of them downloaded on to iPods, iPhones etc and indeed that was the reason I uploaded them in the first place. I am still hoping there is a simple way to transfer them all on to my new Mac. If all the albums bought from the Apple Store came over with the Migration Assistant why didn't the others?

transferring from Mac to iOS devices is straight forward. but going from iOS devices to Mac, while doable, is a bit more complicated. I don't have the knowledge on how to do that, but i'm sure someone else here will be along to help you with that.

sorry, but frankly IDK.
