New attempt at music organization 

Last time I tried Picard I was amazed, but didn't find a good workflow.

Current one, seems to be working well:

1. Move all music dirs to Music-unordered
2. Make sure Music is clean
3. One by one, add folders from Music-unordered to Picard, let it scan/complete metadata, fix anything missing.
4. Save each completed album to Music; Picard deletes it from Music-unordered.

Fingers crossed.

@federicomena what's the benefit against a author-album structure? You can assign multiple tags and make automated playlists, that kind of things?

New attempt at music organization 

@arteteco I have a bunch of ripped music, with terrible tags, and over time it has spread in many disorganized directories. I'm using Picard to auto-tag it properly, and move it to a good directory structure. I'm not sure I'm completely happy with the structure yet, but the tags are fantastic.

For a player I'm using Rhythmbox - drives me nuts sometimes, but seems a lot better browsing-wise with the results from Picard.
