track number - song title.mp3

I use tag & rename for the tags and song titles.

Any other jukebox type programs anyone can recommend?

omigosh! how do u know u don't have duplicates and how do you know what you are even listening to?

I don't use anything and I hardly listen to MP3s either. Btw, I got Logitech 560 speakers today and these things are amazing. I have never heard my Halo Soundtrack sound so good. Anyway, about mp3s, I have a folder with all them in it and the names of the files are good enough identify and find songs (not that I ever do, I open it and click on a random file).

Um, I have them all in my kazaa lite folder, then go into kazaa, look for the artist I want to listen to, and hit play. If I have time to kill, I might even make up a playlist. Go me.

Except for classical music. That goes: composer-title.mp3.

Hmmmm....something I wanted to do a long time ago, this reminds me: Actually "cataloging" my MP3s...are there any utilities that will just spider through an entire folder and spit out a .txt file that has every MP3 listed by dir? I have maybe 40 gigs, not too bad, and everything's in it's own album folder, but it'd be nice to have a fat txt file with every mp3 listed. I imagine there must be something that does this, as a lot of people on IRC have txt files, and I doubt they do it by hand.

If anybody knows or has exactly what I'm talking about, leave a PM, I'm going to sleep. TIA.

there are different command lines you can run from the folder in the command prompt

dir /s > c:\mp3s.txt
attrib /s > c:\mp3s.txt

I just keep mine in folders for each decade with a few extra for genres (Blues, Jazz, Disco, Classical, Soundtracks).

I started using Media Jukebox as it loads quickly and has some decent skins and a mini-me mode that I like.
