--- Quote from: Patrick on 01 Mar 2009, 21:04 ---I just let iTunes do it. It organizes shit really well. I just wish it wouldn't organize albums by certain artists alphabetically. I wish it would go by albums chronologically. How The West Was Won did not come before Led Zeppelin II, for example, but it shows up like that on iTunes.

I added in "Year" alongside "Name" "Time" "Album" "Artist" and all that good stuff on my iTunes and I can organize it by year.
Though How the West Was Won comes in just after Zep IV because it was the '72 tour...
How do you sort live tours? The year of the tour or the year of the release?

I do it by the year of the original tour. When going thru the music, it helps to put the recordings in perspective when you're listening to it. For example, one of Springsteen's live albums Hammersmith Odeon, London '75 would go under 1975, not 2006 or 2007 or whenever it was first released. His live show then is a lot different than his live show today.
As for the whole of my music, I let iTunes do it. It does a damn good job with keep track of everything on my computer. I get pretty OCD with how songs show up on iTunes tho, so I always make sure I correctly format it with album art work and all. And as a fun fact i use a program called 'Bowtie' to monitor what's playing while iTunes is minimized. I can post a link to it if anyone is interested.
boneykingofnowhere:
Big ass file called Music, folders by artist, folders by album, tracks. Also arranged in iTunes.
I just hate it when I get one song that wont be put in the right order in iTunes. Stupid OCD...
el_loco_avs:
I have two folders on two harddrive's with music. mostly as
artist/album/songs when I've sorted it out.
Winamp finds the stuff and makes it easy to sort out and stuff.
I hate iTunes.
dujek:
Folder called Music, then individual folders for each artist, sorted by album, track number and then track name

I bet it was less nuts-to-camera and more rock and roll.
