problem: i want all of a classical composer's "discography"

solution: there are collections of 20gb+ rips of cds that have all of the works by that composer

new problem: i have to import 20gb+ of flacs properly so each cd doesn't show up as an individual album

@chirpbirb ah yes, people not recognizing the importance of the "album artist" tag and putting the CD number in the album name instead of the CD number tag :drgn_think_googly:

@chirpbirb it's not like MP3tag with CDDB plugins isn't right there to clean it up

@SebinNyshkim @chirpbirb is this a classical music specific issue?

@odoben @chirpbirb no, people just don't give a fuck how to tag music correctly and if you want your library to look neat and organized you have to do it yourself

@SebinNyshkim @chirpbirb I do go through the tags of every album I acquire and interestingly I haven't encountered the number-as-album-name problem :blobfoxthonking:

@odoben @chirpbirb I'm talking about stuff like "Album Name (CD 1)" when a %discnumber% tag exists. It causes most library software to split multi-disc albums up even when they're the same album

@SebinNyshkim oooh, yeah, I do see that :neofox_flop:

I guess the reason it doesn't upset me is because I've given up on expecting people to tag things properly :blobfoxangrylaugh:

@odoben I'm more annoyed at the fact hat I have to do it and I'm a stickler for neat and organized things
