What does a truNEET use to manage his music? iTunes is bloated and installs a bunch of background spyware. fubar is a little bit too barebones for me.

Get a theme for foobar

Foobar. Although I did use Mediamonkey for a while and it wasn't too bad.

Do this, it's better to start from less to more (while only adding what you want) than to carry a bloated app like iTunes you mentioned. And since it is so extensible you can find handy plugins.

I love its support for freedb, for example. Makes tagging easier for my incorrect tag OCD.

/mu/tant dropping by from the front page.

I use Winamp, but if you want more customization, foobar is the way to go. Bit of a bitch to get working, but you can get it to work any way you want.

Ugh. Don't remind me of this and its unicode support, I still have nightmares about it.

The biggest problem I have with foobar is it's inability to sort by track numbers properly. Does anyone know how to solve this?

pretty vanilla, only columns and quicksearch. I tried putting this in the sort field and it some what works, but it lists them in the opposite order.

>> No.9375927

>>9375914
I don't know that particular set up, sorry.

It should list the tracks with a track number field, shouldn't it? Try clicking on the track number field. That's my only guess.

Winamp

Well I try that and it lists all of the albums ungrouped with it. It's getting to the point where I'm about to switch back to winamp.

I use iTunes 8 for MP3s and foobar2000 for lossless. I have a ton of loose MP3s in a folder, with subfolders for each artist. In iTunes the MP3s are all sorted. My lossless folder is organized by artist and each album gets its own folder.

iTunes. It's hella bloated, slow and ask for updates every 10 minutes but even then it's unfortunately still the best.
I just can't get used to foobar.

>>9375980
Audio quality does not matter. FLAC respects your freedoms, this is the primary reason to use it, the enhanced audio quality is just a bonus. If you prefer lossy audio, you should use OGG Vorbis.

Foobar for tagging (iTunes for AAC encoding), and explorer.exe for organization.

If you had the patience to do that, you could've easily achieved the same result in fb2k, probably with less work.
