[QUOTE="Peter2, post: 426551, member: 24945"] Just to have your opinions or someone else who might benefit from it; this is the way I did it. On a networkshare, which I mapped wiith a driveletter instead of using UNC names (\\server\share) I have created following structure: - 26 folder with a genre, some of them have subgenres - in those 26 folders, per artist/band I created subfolders with the name of that artist/band. If I have more then 1 CD from this artist/band, again I create subfolders with the title of that cd, otherwise the title of the cd is behind the artist-/bandname. - depending on the number of seperate files of an artist/band/genre, I create a '1_Various' folder inside the genre of even under the artist/band folder, depending on the number of files. Notice the '1_', this is in case I want a certain folder to appear at the top of a list. Everything is arranged by name. This is the format of the files: <track N°>_-_<title> for full cd's, since those files are grouped per folder anyway <artist-/band name>_-_<title> and for the folders <artist-/band name>_-_<title cd> in case of only one cd from this artist/band, otherwise it's <artist-/band name> I have reworked my collection recently to replace all spaces by underscores and have added folder.jpg files for every folder. Of course all the files are tagged properly. [/QUOTE]
