And for filesystem independence.

I organize my music in a 'tree'.

Example:
/mnt/Music/Artist/Albumname/tracks

But that's annoying when you have an artist with one album.  So they go
in:
/mnt/Music/Misc/Artist-Album/tracks
or
/mnt/Music/<genre>/Artist-Album/tracks

But things are still cluttered for some.  Dylan has:
/mnt/Music/Dylan/Album/tracks
/mnt/Music/Dylan/Bootlegs/Albums/tracks
/mnt/Music/Dylan/Tributes/Albums/tracks

etc.

I can reorganize and move things around by just moving a directory and
rescanning.   Since the documentation about which track is which
belongs in the file, I don't have to coordinate  changes in my file
structure with another database: Slimserver will figure it out.. at
worst, I'll have to do a full rescan.

As for the original poster: isn't there a tagger that will read a comma
delimited set of tracks-n-tags and tag the files?  It shouldn't be that
hard to export the spreadsheet to a tagger.
