I recently reorganized my whole mp3 collection (it was getting kind of pathetic... 20gb in one folder). I was just wondering how everyone else keeps their music organized
Here's how mine is set up:
+ Full CDs
|- + Folder for each CD
+ Mixes
|- + Live (recordings of live performances)
|- + Studio (studio-made mixes, i.e. ISOS)
+ Radio
|- + Folder for each station, .m3u in each folder
+ Singles
|- + ~Ambient~ (For all the Ambient singles that don't fit anywhere else)
|- + ~Electronica~ (Trance/Techno singles that don't fit anywhere else)
|- + ~Movies/TV~ (Various tracks from movies and TV)
|- + Folder for each of my favourite artists
+ Unsorted / Incoming (download directory)
+ Vinyls
|- + Folder for each full vinyl rip

I don't have a lot of mp3's yet so I just put them in 2 folders. One for live sets & albums. And the other for singles. Good enough for now.

ok i lie, I just updated it. Folder one has all live sets and full CD's in alp order
folder 2 has all of my vinyl that i personally ripped. For various reasons, which i dont need to go into here. But that is about 500 vinyl (am only half way through). I just recently deleted 56 gigs of old MP3's. Cuz if i like the mp3 that much i buy the vinyl, even if it costs me an arm and a left testicle ( ie..... Ayu M ep......200~~)
Enough from me

i have my mp3s serialized so that my first mp3 ever downloaded is designated as "000001.mp3" and so on. i figure it saves a few bytes per mp3 from filename. only problem is, i kinda lost track of what's what after reaching about a hundred.
