question:

how many of you when rippin CD's to MP3's for PC / MP3 player use use a naming convention?

ie: folders by genera, then artist, then album , then the tracks?

also, then do you reanme the MP3's properly?

ie: taking words like "The" and taking the capital T out?

do i need to see a shrink about my obsessive compulsive disorder?

I use CDEX to name the tracks while ripping.

The filename format is: %1\%2\%1-%2-%7-%4

No spaces.

i know i'm a freak:

MUST have the spaces, need to be able to read the file properly when viewed as "icons" (though this view is details for re-naming)
