Get Your Damn Tags Right

Description:

So, are you one of those people who absolutely hate having your music files mistagged? The artist has to be correct, the title the proper title, the track listed for the correct album, and all...

The term "tags" for this group is referring to the data on the music files on a person's hard drive. Those are the ones that better be fixed.

If you're concerned about what people are taggin items with the website's tagging system, go elsewhere.

Note: Due to massive levels of journal whoring by people, any journals submitted to the group that are clearly irrelevant will result in the submitter being kicked out. Multiple submissions of this type will result in banning. Don't be stupid, and don't be an attention whore, and you're all good.

I suppose I'm a bit of an iTunes perfectionist. Everything has to have the correct name and artwork. It must sound stupid to a lot of people, but I can't help it! When someone knows they have a song/artist/album misspelled but they just leave like that, I'm thinking "How can you do that?!" [27]

I hate it when people miss tag their music. When I look for Goth, I get Marilyn Manson, which is Shock Rock. When I look for EBM, I get Combichrist, which is Aggrotech. ETC. I really, really hate it.

Most people are just too lazy to fix their ID3-tags, so they mess up last.fm's database. Look at my library: I have NO misstagged artists...

I keep my music freakishly organized, and thus so are my tags. But seriously, what is the point of being adamant about how people tag their scrobbled tracks, if the last.fm software / winamp plugin itself screws up the tags regardless by picking them randomly from the winamp playlist? Hence I have stopped caring for a clean last.fm library. http://www.last.fm/forum/34905/_/509995

iTunes? For a group full of people obsessed about tagging I would've thought the majority would have foobar2000 or something.
