I have a folder of MP3s, some of which date back to 1999, just a few years after the format was popularised. Most of them have utterly terrible names (think RIDEONAM.MP3). I think at this point they might even survive the heat death of the universe. And they’ll still be terribly-organised.
That reminds me that I should definitely plug my phone into my desktop and do a ton of music folder creation and reorganizing. I’ve got over 500 files and I really need to fully organize every single one and reorganize the ones that are organized already. Same with my much smaller set on my desktop. Luckily that one isn’t nearly as bad.
I have a few thousand mp3s and they are all neatly organised with tags and sorted in folders by artist and album. Whenever I add something i make sure it follows my naming scheme and has all the tags. Has been like that since I got my first few albums when I was like 10.
Maybe I’m on the autism spectrum.
I have something similar on my laptop, but it’s only partially implemented on my desktop and phone. I only recently, within the last few years, really started to care. Some gear in my autistic brain started turning and now I need to have my music organized. I’ve just been held back on my phone and desktop because of how much work it would take, even though it would probably take less than an hour.
