So I've got a bunch of MP3 files and a smattering of FLAC files.

I'm looking for a program that can:

- Automatically rename the file to just the song name, and edit the file data to have the correct artist/album/etc.
- Create folders to store songs in.
- Enter multiple folders into to be sorted automatically.

Freeware is preferred, but if there's a really great alternative that's relatively cheap, I'm all for it.

iTunes? It's kind of slow if you aren't on a Mac, but it'll sort you're music in folders quite nicely, you just have to give it the artist/album name. It won't clean up file names automatically.

e, Apple doesn't support FLAC either.

Already got iTunes - it's not doing what I want it to.

I'm meticulous with my music library.  It's my core survival tool at work.  I have headphones in like 6 hours a day.

I use mp3tag for tagging all my music.  I do folders by hand.  I use winamp for rating my music and then use smart views to generate playlists by rating + artist/genre/whatever

It only takes me a few minutes to assimilate an album into my library (not including rating it)

Mp3tag is what I use to rename music files and edit tags.  It doesn't let you organize the files but having the proper tags and filenames helps.

I read a maximum PC article that had a program that edits tags and sorts music into appropriate folders according to how you tell it.  I think it was called something monkey.  Give me some time to find it and I'll post a link.

Media Monkey? I didn't know it would auto-sort, but it has my favorite autotag feature.

The program is called Media Monkey.  The free version should have all that you need.  This is the Maximum PC article I was talking about.

Thanks guys - Media Monkey works for my purposes.
