[QUOTE="Pog, post: 1097124, member: 97724"] Hey dholroyd, I use both MPTagThat and Mp3Tag for my tagging. I have around 25000 tracks in my library mostly lossless flac and I've been careful to make sure tags are good and use high quality cover art from my own scans or what I've found on the net. It's tedious work but I figure worth it for the long haul. I store music like this on my hardrive: Music/<artist>/<album>/<song> [ATTACH]154412[/ATTACH] Next I tag an album with MPTagThat (Mp3Tag is better for big batch work but I find MPTagThat better for individual albums) [ATTACH]154411[/ATTACH] The AlbumArtist tag is important as MP uses this to group albums together. I usually have cover.jpg and folder.jpg (same image) in folder containing the tracks. I also add (embed) the cover to the tracks via MPTagThat. Some of this is probably overkill but I figure this is worth the work so that any software now or in the future can use the tracks without issue. [/QUOTE]
