Scrubbing Songs
Cleaning ID3 tags is a huge pain in the ass, and extremely time-consuming. But not cleaning them and allowing my iTunes to have messy song lists and missing album covers is a bigger pain in the ass. So I'm stuck cleaning them.
With extra cycles, this is what my brain conjures up.
Mostly, it wonders about things that people take for granted.
Or that they don't care about wasting time with.

yep. I want to burn my MP3s to CD/DVD. But at the same time, I like to have them organized before I etch them permanently. But I have no time for organization now. So, at the end of the day, they just take up disk space.
My prediction is that I will end up burning them with only minor clean-up. It will suck. And I will cringe each time I go through that DVD. But I will have to live with it.
I think my main problem is that 40GB of music is too much. I probably haven't listened to about 10GB of it, and it's just sitting there taking up space.
That's one thing about not carrying my music on my iPod anymore -- I can't simple rate the song I'm listening to, so that I can mark it for deletion later if I don't like it.
(For me and my iTunes, a one-star rating means "get rid of it" and a two-star means "erase if I need more space", while three stars begins the distinctions on how much I like the song.)
I didn't used to be this Monk-ish about my music, but as the collection grows, I need to maintain some sort of order to make heads or tails of it, and to make playlists somehow meaningful. MoodLogic would be a welcome addition right now.
Yes, well... "it's a jungle out there..."
