I try to keep mp3s at 320 or VBR. My favorite albums are all in Apple Lossless format. When i get a better rig i'll play around with higher quality audio components but this works fine for me now, placebo affect or whatever

ALL my music is stored in the same folder. SOme people may not know that iTunes stores files in two different locations when you chose to copy files to an "iTunes Music Folder"under Preferences. Something to consider if you wanna save space. 


tag fields stay consistent with EVERY SINGLE ALBUM. the only variable is the Composer field. if i don't know the producer/composer it stays blank. I only use a few general Genre tags (i.e. I only have Rock as a Genre, not CLassic or Punk or Alternative). Hip Hop is always Hip Hop, not Hip-Hop or Hip-Hop/Rap or any of the popular ways to tag that field. I stay on top of this with EVERY album i add


Lyrics go on every song. When you have an iPod touch/iPhone you can chose to have lyrics show on the screen.





the correct lyric is:


" MEATheads get pistol whipped......"

Gross.

There is nothing neat about this.

All I see is a bunch of unnecessary clutter.

No disrespect.
