can songs above the 25000 limit be added to itunes library?

No. But you can create a new Apple ID and iTunes account, pay another $24.99 for another Match account. However, the additional tracks will not be usable under the old account and vice-versa.

Hi,

I have all my music in the library. I have a large number of tracks with iCloud status shown as "removed"

I achieved this by creating a second blank library - I signed into match and was able to view all tracks in iTunes Match.

I then deleted some tracks from this library - effectively deleting (hiding) tracks in the cloud.

When I went back into my original library, those tracks were shown as "removed". iTunes Match will now ignore those tracks. You can now add new tracks provided you keep matched and uploaded less than 25k.

This is a long process but eventually you can have all tracks in your library but with only selected tracks in the cloud.

Are you sure once iTunes Match updates again your library these Removed tracks won't upload again?

'Cos I think that's what happens.

100% positive. Removed tracks are ignored. I have over 40k tracks in my library with several thousand being removed.

Hi,

Can you play this track? If not, can you play track in QuickTime?
