specifically for sorting music? One that isn't Itunes?
I apperently have about 50gb of 100% legally aquired music that is in no way shape or form pirated, but it is in large disorganized directories. So I need to sort it. Anyone have any good utilities they use for this purpose?

I used to use musicbrainz but it was about to die from the curse of popularity when I stopped using it. not sure if it still exists, googling that is an exercise for the reader
Do what now?
Nobby posted about something simmilar a while back and I never got around to coding something that would do this in Widows. Maybe I'll do that this week if I have time to kill.
I'm not aware of anything that does this presently in XP or Vista.
If I understand correctly, you'd like something to read the ID3 tags, then move things into created named directories by artist or album or whatever?
Seems pretty striaghtforward. Are they all MP3s or is it a mismash of WMA AAC etc?

Nearly all MP3s. There might be a few exception cases, but those would make up maybe 30 files total out of the thousands of mp3s. Most of them are tagged correctly, the ones that aren't would likely be in my tradeing junk folder.

Ok, then. I can probably write a python script that will do this without too much trouble. Probably with no GUI, depending on how easy that is with Visual Studio, I'm really not sure offhand.
Give me a few hours. :)

I'm not sure if it will sort your music into directories, but MusikCube is a pretty good program for playing the music and making "best" play lists etc. Fairly straightforward and simple.

I'm not sure what you have against iTunes, but couldn't you just use it to create a catalogued folder then uninstall it?

I found most of the needed code online, I think it's a lot easier, particularly for what you wanted, to copy a bunch of MP3s sorted into directories and albums to burn a CD image for driving or the like.
Certainly easier if you were going to do it more than once.

I use Media Monkey. It was the only program that was capable of letting me drag and drop stuff into my MP3 player, instead of doing a formal sync process, and it allows you to sort and organize your music in a Windows Explorer-type menu. It also allows for mass file information changes (say you find all the tracks for one album and want to label them as such after dumping them all in one folder . . . it lets you select all and make the changes en masse.)
Free version is free; gold version is better.

I'm certain that windows media player can search your hard drive for everything and compile it for ya, as long as it isn't an obscure format.
