Right, the fallacy of Gracenote and FreeDB is there can never be one source and scheme that suits everybody. You'll either be stuck with somebody else's version of reality [Genre = Shoegaze] - WTF??? or you'll have to do lots of research and manual editing.
The thing is, as collections grow and become more essential as personal listening sources, the old adage of "garbage in, garbage out" rears its head: "I know Billie Holiday died in 1959 - so why does this track have a year tag of 2001?" Tags and tagging schemes become personal choices, mini-religions, even. So a library with inaccurate tags, or tags that don't reflect the owner's way of thinking, are often worse than useless. -- Pale Blue Ego ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pale Blue Ego's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=110 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21135 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
