Mp3 Tag Editors

Okay time to share sumtin'..

Lets talk about mp3 music file. Me myself have thousand music (i love listening to full album rather than a single track) and for some people it was a trouble if they not so concern in arranging their music file. Some end up just let their music not categorize accordingly and most likely have a double mp3 file with same song. So how to solve this kind of problem? Well i would like to say start to keep it neat and tidy.. but that not what we will talk about in this post.

I am a kind of person who want their things arrange into systematic order (not entirely.. my room was pretty much a mess) which i want information in my music file tag shown correctly. Actually there is bunch of software that we can use to solve this kind of mess.
