For me the ease of use and automation wins out over some tagging inaccuracies, however what I will do is every month or so I use mp3tag to access the files on my vortexbox and correct any tags for new music - the tagging is actually pretty good now and I would say 80% of the time I am happy, however for something recent like Wilko's new album vortexbox didn't return any genre or year tags so I keen to correct that! I also use bliss or the vortexbox 'get cover art' button for cover art which is very good for updating artwork. I guess one of the plus points for vortexbox is that you can easily get in afterwards to correct the results and it includes tools to help that -- socistep ------------------------------------------------------------------------ socistep's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18860 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91090 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
