I'm doing 14 things
Have reached the half-way mark with all tracks completely organized and meta-tagged correctly. All tracks are double checked against the iTunes Music Store and Allmusic.com for genre and sub-genre hierarchy. Allmusic.com is specially useful because they have sub-genre headings with pages which explain features and major artists of each genre. For better organization on ipods and iphone genres are organized genre:sub-genre, that way its easy to find specific genres and create specific playlists. As for album art most of it is high resolution from the iTMS and Albumartexchange.com, although there are a few which are from Amazon.com or found on Google Images. Lyrics are imported automatically through GimmeSomeTune, a great little Mac OS X application which also posts to Last.fm Throughout this process its also been an opportunity to rate and purge tracks that are obviously in high rotation or have never been played in the six years of an all digital music library. While some sliming has happened, I’ve also decided to complete some albums and started importing music videos, so its about even. Although this is mostly done by hand the details are just right, unlike previous attempts from iEatBrainz, Corripio and other taggers meant to be a one stop shop for organizing iTunes libraries.
