So with the most recent Spotify nonsense I've finally had enough and I'm going back to mp3. Unfortunately, I haven't had to do this since Bush left office and I do not have the free time to manually sort and document every single file I have. I've been using MusicBrainz Picard but I don't know if the learning curve is steeper than I have traction for or if it's just really picky.

Anyone got suggestions on how to better manage all my jams? I'm trying to make it user friendly as I can for the family and so far I'm not winning lol

Be careful with Mediamonkey. I've got it on my phone and PC, and my music is getting quieter and quieter on the phone. I think it's something to do with the volume leveling on the Android version, but haven't had a chance to figure it out yet.

I can put a song on full volume, and it's quiet enough that it's difficult to hear. I've tried the same tracks through youtube, and the volume is fine, so it's not the phone speakers.
