Over the last couple of weeks I started to back up my classical cd’s to flac. Problem is that I’ve hit a snag when it comes to tagging my collection with metadata. There is just much more information about a classical album you would want to search across in constructing a playlist than there is places where to store it. It’s just not readily apparent to me which is the most useful way to place which info where. Numerous sites across the web offer suggestions but they’re all idiosyncratic. Since there doesn’t seem to be one correct method, it seemed like a good idea to enquire of the folks on the board how they have dealt with this particular problem? This is a tedious process and not one I want to repeat (ripping a single cd at a time).
So,
How ‘bout it? What has worked for you or what would you advise? Do you include the artist in the track title? What do you do for works that span across several tracks? Do you rip to a single file and use a cue sheet? Have you found one way is better or worse when you move your music to an mp3 player, a music server, or iTunes?
I’m feeling a little stumped and unsure how to proceed... Any guidance you can give would be appreciated.
