Is that the Aaron Carter album with the song about playing basketball with Shaq?  If so, that is the best album in your collection.

I just finished this up on my iTunes too.  Next up is creating a master playlist with all the songs I like, without all the seasonal music and stuff I don't listen to.

Feels good man, having everything in order. 
 
On that note, anyone use a different media player? I use iTunes as well but am beginning to get sick and fucking tired of the memory it eats up, plus I don't use an iPod anymore so my iTunes is only acting as a media player and there has to be a more light weight one out there.

The greatest singe act of trolling I've ever done was highlighting someone's entire library and changing it so they were all listed as the same song.

Man good for you, I've been meaning to do this for a long time as well as some of my docs and I'm just way too lazy.  But you've inspired me to do it, just not now.

Great shit man. Personally, I do all the artwork and info manually for every song I have. It's taxing, but it's completely worth it.

I want to extend my congratulations to you, as someone who meticulously keeps his music collection in shape (fuck no iTunes, you can't sort my music for me) I can say that it's a great feeling.

Congrats, man. 
 
My music library is the only thing I keep organized, period. And I'm so obsessive about it that if I get a new album, everything has to be entered correctly and all dashes/colons/etc. uniform before I can actually listen to it. 
 
Also, fuck Apple. There is only Winamp.

I use Winamp, and everything you had to do, Winamp does for me in nearly every case .
 
And I never get duplicated files, I have no clue why iTunes does that.

@BibleDoctor: I use Foobar for that very reason. It's hella lightweight and is by FAR the most customizable media player out there. 
 
I fucking hate itunes but I use a pc and itunes clearly isn't optimized for it.

Yeah i've tried Foobar out, but I could never get everything set up the way i'd like it. I could never get the albums and playlists where I wanted them, or the album art to be in the corner. Seemed like a great program (lightweight as hell) I just never got used to configuring the damn thing.

It's even pretty shocking on a Mac. I know quite a few friends through uni who use them, and a former roommate, and all of them have reported the same issues.
 
I'm just gonna say it's a pretty poorly coded program.

Can't go wrong with winamp, its nice and simple, has all the features you want, and is totally 90s. Also uses only a tiny bit of memory.
 
I'm chained to itunes because of my iphone =/

@Bruce:  I absolutely love The Antlers, I actually had the pleasure of seeing them last year at Lollapalooza, if you have the chance to see them live, I highly recommend it.  They are one of the few bands that I can say with complete confidence sound better live than on the C.D, and that shouldn't be taken lightly, since it was probably my favorite C.D of 2009.
 
@nintendoeats: I would use FOOBAR but I actually use the iTunes store for some things, so I don't think I can drop it completely.  Also, Nick Drake is indeed "da shit" 
 
@Ahmad_Metallic:  I did that because it shows all of the albums completely, as opposed to the last picture showing the bottom half of the one above it 
 
@harvey_the_pooka:  Just over 6000 songs, in this process I actually got about 500 songs off of it, most of which were duplicates and such.
