How do you organize your music

[DaTT]

Here's how I do mine

If it's an mp3: Artist Name - Song Name.mp3
If its a video : (Video) Artist Name - Song Name.mpg

I can spend several hours organizing new stuff and finding faults with the old stuff, then fixing it. Not sure why i do this, I'm not a very organized person IRL.

Dunno, however my software rips it.

 

[stan394]

<artist name><3-digit sequence number (1 for each album of artist, chrological order)><2-digit track code>.mp3

Artist\Album\Song.mp3

 

Just artist folder and all the songs in there. No album crap, it takes a while to undo that but its easier in the long run.

 

[Leros]

Artist/Album (year)/01 - song.mp3

example:

D:\Music\Bury Your Dead\Cover Your Tracks (2004)\01 - Top Gun.mp3

iTunes. Why on earth would I do anything else?

 

[HermDogg]

Some by artist, some by album, some by random mixes. It's all organized in iTunes via artist playlist or an actual playlist.

 

[loup garou]

artist\album\track#-artist-album.wma

But WMP/MCE really does the organization.

 

[neutralizer]

Album Name (Artist) / ##. Artist Name - Song Title.mp3

 

[xSauronx]

i use folders...

 

[laurenlex]

Sticky label. Cassette name. Cassette artist. Side 1 or 2. :Q

 

[secretanchitman]

either:

artist/song
number/song

depending whether who ripped it. or if im too lazy to select the option for it.

 

[DaTT]

lol.....never thought of how many possible ways to organize music there was.

 

[Nohr]

/Artist/Album/Artist - Title.mp3

Itunes isn't the be all, but it is simple, the ui is jsut dandy, and my pc doesn't care that it is a hog.

[nageov3t]

for just random MP3's, it's Genre -> MP3

for full album's that I've ripped, it's Artist -> Album
