How incredibly lame. Downloaded and installed new version of iTunes. Go to subscribe to iTunes match and am denied because my library has more than 25 thousand songs. I would just assume most folks have more than this and to not be able to use this service because of the amount of music in my library is ********.
1. It has been clear for several months that iTunes Match will only work for libraries up to 25k songs for now. I'm sure this will be lifted at some point, but Apple had to put a limit on it for until they can see how their server structures handle the huge demand this will cause.
2. I very much doubt that many people have more than 25k songs. Maybe 0.5% of all iTunes users?
3. I suppose one option might be to remove some songs from your library that you don't listen to much, then sync with iTunes Match, and then re-add those songs? Haven't tried it obviously but maybe it'll work?
