> 1. What folks are storing in the Date tag

The year of the orginal album release whenever possible.  Occasionally,
if it's a live recording, the recording date.  It's fairly common for
some live jazz albums to not be released until 10, 20 or more years
after the recording date.  For compilations I'll generally use the
release date, but sometimes the recording date if all tracks are from
about the same year.

The CD packaging?  Sometimes allmusic.com, the artist's web site, or
just google it and find a writeup about the album.  Even Wikipedia.

Mp3tag and other taggers have means of pulling data from web sources. 
After ripping, though, I do most of my tagging corrections manually.
