I know many KJ's here also have nice libraries of regular MP3's like myself for DJing along with hosting KARAOKE I'm looking for a program that will be able to READ my mp3's and CORRECT file names - IDENTIFY DUPLICATES and reorganize by ARTIST /ALBUM / TITLE I've tried (2) this week that I am not happy with FIXTUNES MP3 Music Organizer Pro - Full version ANYONE SUGGEST SOMETHING ELSE ? |

Tag & Rename. Been using it about 10 years now, and still serves its purpose fine. For the record: My MP3s are organised into 5 main folders ("Albums","Compilations","Soundtracks","Singles","Utilities") In folders where it is relevant ("Albums","Soundtracks","Compilations") the format is: {Album Artist} - {Album Title}\({Disk #} - {Track #}) {Artist} - {Title}.mp3 Otherwise simply: {Artist} - {Title}.mp3 Every single MP3 is correctly tagged with Artist, Title, Album Artist, Year, Genre, Track #, Disk # I can view them in Winamp or iTunes, so have a number of playlists generated and ready to roll. Moreover (and this is possibly illegal but sue me!) the library exists on: My Laptop My Server My iPod 2 removable hard drives I make no apologies for the above - my music has cost me a LOT of money over my lifetime, and I refuse to give in to arcane laws. I only use 1 version of it at a time. |

It get even worst if you have songs in 5 different languages. |

Well... It can only do what it knows... So are your files all ID3 tagged? Are your files all named in a specific way (inc folder)? If so - I personally would "normalise your naming and tagging" so all files are named and/or tagged in a consistent way. Move them all into 1 shared folder Allow Tag&Rename to do it's work. I mean, if I dropped all mine into 1 big folder, I could easily let Tag&Rename sort them into folders: By artist then by year By genre, then by artist, then by album etc |

Another though: Does it matter? Bare with me... Using a decent app such as iTunes or Winamp, physical folder heirarchy is ignored, and their libraries allow you to select via whatever means necessary. |

You might want to try this freeware http://www.mp3tag.de/en/ It will also let you export your tags. |
