The 25000 song limit does not count anything you purchased from the iTunes store. If you have more than 25000 songs you ripped, the method I have read about is time consuming, but effective. They suggest making a separate iTunes library and including only the tracks you really want matched. After you set it up, then go through the match process. There is an article on macworld that addresses this.
