The Ultimate Music File Organizer

(1/3) > >>

tinjaw:
I started a few months ago to organize my music files. I made much progress but didn't complete the project. I want to get that project finished.

I am wondering if there is currently a way to automate much of this process. Ultimately I would just like to move all of my music files to a directory and have a program that takes the files (irregardless of the directory structure or naming convention) and processes them by a combination of technologies like MusicBrainz and MusicIP to identify songs, and other utilities to grab cover art, lyrics, etc. as well as fill out mp3 tags.

Has somebody glued all this together yet?

Here's some that look like what you want.
I guess you would need to test them.

 :mad: Obviously something fishy is going on here. Does anybody recognize the program? Is it an open source program some jerk is trying to sell for $40?

Be careful with any automated tool to do this as identifying songs and tagging them can result in mistagged songs and ruin your collection and make a lot more work for you in the end.

MusicBrainz and MusicIP are not 100% foolproof and will misidentify songs.

I only did a search for 'best music organizer'.
What do you see there tinjaw.
The same program with different names,
but it's a free program that these sites are charging for it?

Anyways there were a lot of hits, that's just one.
