name them as i get them via winamp

then they go into the big music folder

renamed accordingly as they are acquired, although i dont usually change id tags

then just dumped into "mp3s"

i have a program that can take the id3 tag and generate a filename or take the file name and generate an ID tag

I rip all the id3 tags. They piss me off.

As far as sorting goes, I'm the most anal person you will ever meet. Seriously. Everything has perfect titling (As far as I know) and I've spent a very large amount of time finding a folder system that works. Get my list on DC or something, you'll see what I mean.

Because I'm a hardcore music nerd.

I wish mp3 tags used xml keyword/tree scheme especially for genre, because a lot time i find music that falls into multiple categories or can be described in general or more specific terms. I just held a party and sometimes you want to play random hardcore or mello musics of different genres. When you get into mainstream music something can be pop, rock, and alternative.
