Group Releases

Should I rename the files and folders after I obtain them or not? I'm really confused... I'm not sure if it makes the same effect on people when they see the group release TM on the files. The latest files I've got I havn't rename them, but basically all my files have been renamed!! I need to start searching for the group that released them now...

..help??

yeah, but some people see a release by a certain group and they quickly know its a good rip cuz they are good at ripping... or cuz they are a major release group. get it? (alomst inunderstandable, but I didn't want to use any group names.)

Do you rename your files after you obtain them randummboy?

Every major release group out there releases tonZ of tracks every week... most of them are... how can I put it, "not so good" (in nice words ).
True- some are older in the scene then others and are therefore well known, but it still doesen't have to do with the quality of their released tracks.

i find it reassuring to have the ripping group's tag on the mp3... so i KNOW that's its fairly reliable (for example, its not a radio rip, a bootleg, or a mislabelled file).

i can't stand it when people mislabel mp3s and you search for a song on AG (now dead, =(...) and you find something ridiculous like, i dunno... system f - out of the blue (gouryella remix), which gouryella clearly didn't remix... i dunno.. that's just an example i pulled outta my ass, but you get the idea.
