"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.
I have been considering an external 460GB ssd drive, isn't there a way for the music to stay in the cloud instead?
You can keep your music in the Apple Cloud. Make sure the size fits in what they give you. I think either the piece you wish to sync to phone or else all the music needs to be with Apple. Other cloud is the same as external storage.

You have two options:
If you want to keep your iTunes Library in the cloud you'll want to either use iTunes Match (for $25/year) or Apple Music (for $9/mo) . The limitation is on songs, not gigs... and it's 25k so most people don't have a problem there. Both keep and stream on demand your entire collection and allow you to clear off any device you own so that it doesn't need to store your library locally... which is brilliant. But of course it requires data... potentially a lot.
Your other option is to just use an external HD to store your entire iTunes library. Whatever Mac you plug into this library can read it as if it were on that Mac, and the playlists, new purchases, deletions, etc are all kept along for the ride. You just have to make sure to copy the entire folder called "iTunes" from the Music folder somewhere onto the external.. then hold down the option key the next time you start up iTunes. It will then allow you to choose the library you put on the external. (Don't pay attention to the tutorials that tell you to move your music to an external via the iTunes Preferences. That only moves the music files and not the actual library. )
