I have about 8000 MP3s.

I need a way to sort them neatly.

Some have Artist - Track in the title, but no ID3 tag.

Some have ID3 tag but are called 03lalala.mp3.

Some are arranged in folders, ripped from CD.

Can anyone recommend a program to sort them all out, preferably into folders under the album title and artist name and hopefully with the ability to use internet lookup to find ID3 info for those missing it.

Cheers

Filling in ID3 tags and renaming files is one of the most fun things you can do!

I recall there was a program I used to turn ID3 into suitable filenames but...it caused more trouble than it was worth.

All 8000 now sorted into directories by Artists then sub directories by Album.

I truly am efficient. Hire me!
