Let's do another round of this. What's going on on your servers, any cool things? How'd the recent CVE flood tangent you and did it change how you see/do stuff?

I have opinions about music tagging! I'm picky; I don't trust any amount of automation to find the exact right release with the right album art I want, so I use GUIs instead of a CLI -

MusicBrainz has Picard, and that's pretty slick. Also includes a handy renaming tool for keeping files organized. Quod Libet is also worth a look. I'm not as familiar with its feature set, but it'll run on a toaster.

One day I might try to tackle Beets. Heard lots of good about that as an auto-tagging solution, so maybe check that out, too.

Yeah, same. Earlier this year I thought "Hey, people seem to love auto tagging with MB, Picard, Beets. I should try it."

But that was short lived. I don't want release information outside of artists, titles, albums, year. I just have no need for it. I know how to get what I want from mp3tag.

I am looking at using Beets to keep things clean, maybe find missing artwork, and fetch lyrics. But the vital information I'll keep reviewing.

I haven't ever gotten comfortable with how Picard works, but I'll check out QL. Thanks!
