I paid for dBpoweramp for stuff like this and it's amazing. So many fields to edit!

This is what I did. No regrets.

Very expensive compared to throwing a micro sd into any old random smartphone.

Yeah but I do everything through iTunes. No way I'm gonna deal with learning a new tagging system or some other interface.

I use iTunes for file management and for podcasts, but I do all of my tagging in other programs.

I never realized people have such a problem with tagging. Pretty much everything I download is appropriately tagged already.

There's some that come with random website in the comments tag, or with something other than lyrics in the lyrics tag.
Also there are times when last.fm will say "you've never listened to this song" because it's listed as "Pookie (With Kendrick Lamar)" by Soundgarden instead of "Pookie" by Soundgarden & Kendrick Lamar. Or even the "&" is actually "and" and that makes a difference somehow.
Fucking last.fm. I noticed the count of an album was off the other day so I went track by track and it said I listened to all of the songs but two 5 times, and those two were listed as once. I only listen to albums so that's just stupid on the part of the scrobbler.

Once upon a time it was decent because it gave you recommendations and the like. Right now the scribbler barely works in windows 10 and the website is full of advertisements more than anything else. I'm close to dropping it because it's not doing for me what it used to. I suppose it might if I started to pay but...why?

I do like looking at my Last.fm stats every few months to see what I've been up to; sometimes, it's quite surprising. Back during like '07-'09 before it got shut down for obvious reasons, their streaming service was great and I discovered a lot of artists that way.

Alright I received a few Sandisk 256 GB Micro SDXC cards.
Going to format to fat32 and then it's asking me about allocation unit size? I'm storing mostly flac files.
My options:
512
1024
2048
8192
16384
32768
65536
Any ideas here guys?

I can't even trust my stats anymore because of the 'lost listens' problem. I mean if it were just one or two that'd be great but I had an album at 57 listens but the 5th track (of 13) said I had only listened to it 8 times.
