ITunes Match Crashing at Step 3 (won't upload)

Question

I've been using iTunes Match for quite some time now but the last few weeks, maybe longer, it crashes at step 3 where it tries to upload anything that wasn't automatically matched.  There are only 2 songs that it tries to upload, but each time it crashes.  This is the error report:

First, important question: what is "that other thread" that you mention?
This thread: This solved my questionRe: iTunes Match Crashing at Step 3 (won't upload). Posted right above your previous post.

so how do I remove that song without deleting it? (That was my question before -- sorry, I'm not trying to be willfully obtuse -- I just don't understand how to do it.)
If you know the one track that is causing a crash delete it from the iTunes library by highlighting it and typing Option+Delete on the keyboard. In the dialog choose the option to "keep files."

Why do I have so many unmatched songs? Does changing the Album, Artist, Song information (which I often do because I don't really like the classical music descriptors automatically provided) make the title unmatchable?
Because the matching process is not 100% accurate; or you have an older mastering of an album that did match to what is in the store; or something in your library is not availble in the store. In short your library simply will not "match" 100%. There will be a percentage that must be uploaded.
