Cool! Transitioning from Subsonic to a beets library seems like a common 
problem.

I believe there are ID3 tags for both play count and star rating. There’s more 
about the rating tag in this thread:

At the moment, beets doesn’t support either, but this shouldn’t be a difficult 
change to make if you’re interested. In the mean time, you can use beets’s 
flexible attributes to store the data in the SQLite database without writing it 
to the files.

> 2) Album/Artist/Title if there is only one result in the Beets database
> 3) Finally, user choice if there are multiple results

This approach sounds great!
