Is your mp3 collection a mess with many of your songs tagged with different spellings of artists, albums, or even worse no tags at all? If you have a Ipod or any other mp3 player then you know this can be a big pain. If you have this problem you gotta checkout this OpenSource (free) software called MusicBrainz.
MusicBrainz will automatically and properly tag all your mp3 files with the correct info as well as standardizing album and artist names. In addition you can set it up to rename your actual file names and change file directories. Now whenever I download new music I download the songs to a temp folder and I have MusicBrainz setup to scan that temp folder, retag the mp3s, and output to my library folder- it’s a system I swear by now.
