Will this iTunes Match strategy work?

Update: I have moved this over to my own site where I will post updates regarding whether or not this works.

I have an iTunes library that exceeds the 25,000 song limit for iTunes Match even when you subtract the purchased songs from the total. For argument’s sake, and because this isn’t a mine-is-bigger-than-yours contest, lets call it 30,000 ripped songs.

I would like to utilize iTunes Match, but I do not want to split my library into two separate libraries as suggested by many articles including @flargh’s recent “iTunes Match Limit: What to do when you hit 25,000 songs.”

Let me clarify…

Allow me to clarify that “I do not want to split my library into two separate libraries” comment…

Install MAPP (MAMP) stack on El Capitan using MacPorts

I keep most of my Apache/PHP/Percona (MySQL) configuration stuff in a local Git repository so I can track changes and I symlink to those from where they should be so you will see commands such as

 sudo ln -s ~/Documents/configs/PHP/fat-tony.local/php56.ini /opt/local/etc/php56/php.ini 

If you don’t have a similar setup, just copy your configuration files to where they need to be.

I like to prepend some of the commands with time just for curiosity’s sake to see how long it takes.
