Music Match and downloads

I have Music Match and Apple Music. I also have thousands of cd’s that I’ve ripped into iTunes. I listen at home, at office, in the car through my iPhone. My question is because I really don’t understand exactly what I have. If I delete downloads to save memory on my computer, is the music still available to me or do I need to keep the downloads on the computer so I can have musicmatch deliver them on my other devices? Obviously I’m confused.


thanks.

If you have Apple Music you don't need iTunes Match, as it's incorporated into the former. You can remove them on your computer and just have them downloaded on the other devices for offline listening.
