This task has expanded beyond my original anticipation. I had intended to quickly browse through my library and find all those annoying instances where iTunes had created album or artist duplications due to a hidden space or other miniscule difference. I also intended to clean up the genre index to the extent that a single artist was classified under a single genre.
I have since expanded my systemization to include the download of the related album art, an unexpectedly time consuming task. After a solid hour of work I have only made it through the albums beginning with numbers and A’s.
While it is much additional work it is a satisfying task. The digitalization of music has created many benefits and conveniences but for me personally it has removed some of the visual associations. By reconnecting the visual graphics with the music I have been reminded of many memories long forgotten.
