I use Tag & Rename and there is an option for Capitalization of first word. However, since tagging my huge library has taken some time, Tag & Rename has since abandoned the ALL MUSIC service and instituted Amazon.com as the source. Once imported, there are variants on case etc. Examples that reflect the most frequency of case inconsistency are words like 'of', 'and', 'the'. On one album Dion and the Blmonts may be represented as 'Dion and the Belmonts' while the next album may be represented as 'Dion And the Belmonts' while another appears as 'Dion And The Belmonts'. In the interim I have been going back through the library and trying to standardize the case on the artists that have multiple-listings based on case sensitivity; I am up to 'A' so far :) -- D -- Dondi _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
