Awesome - solved the issue - but still not sure why this was ineligible but other mp3s from the same source are eligible.
Grolabator,
The matching function has a few criteria that cause it to reject a file, such as bitrate too low, or file size over 200 MB. If the problem is not one of those, it is probably some minor corruption that is tripping up iTunes. That usually goes away if you do a conversion to create a fresh new AAC file.
Anyway, glad it worked. Enjoy the music!
