QUOTE(samurai1337 @ Nov 20 2006, 01:54 PM) Just a poll to survey on how you guys manage your MP3 files. Please stick to the topic only, you don't have to mention whether your songs collection is legal/illegal, where you download it etc. Extra information like why do you tag your MP3s, how much time did you spend in doing it, what player are you using, do you have portable player like iPod/Zen/Zune etc are welcome. i didn't tag, but i did rename and sort thingy, arrange it according ## - Artist - Track like this...

"I name and tag my MP3s properly, and arrange the folders according to artist/album, together with Album cover/art" That's me. Once download then whole album in single folder liao lo. then another folder = another album lo.

But I think for those who are not familiar with iTunes, a backup is recommended, as everything will be changed without warning  It might turn up to be the way you don't want

i rename the file according to the type of language the song is in..0 for jpop/jrock, 1 for chinese etc etc...
using winamp to edit the tags...i started sorting everything out when i first got this com...been doing it ever since then...some more winamp can just jump to the desired song, convenient...

"I do tag my MP3s, only with basic info like Artist and Song name" but i separate my English and Chinese songs.
I use Godfather to organise my songs.

i used the free program from german software makers, mp3tagger...
my collection is properly organized, downloaded songs that i get from unknown sources go into a special folder before they are editted with tags, had their 'comments' removed, and renamed if necessary before they go into my Music folder..

Any other votes? Quite an even poll so far although we can see most of the people do only some basic-tagging for their songs collection

When I first hear MP3, I just put all file in 1 big folder..then after got my new rig, I finally realize why we need to tag out file properly. Why? Easy for me to search the file that I want to hear, doesn't to see the long lasting list of file just to find 1 or 2 song.... I tag and list my song according to region, like International, Asian etc - artist - album...easy for me and my friend if they wanna search..
