But the file names were not as ordered and consistent like this, they were all over the place. Most of them did not even have proper meta data so I had lots of songs by "unknown artist". Creating playlists within a music player was a mess, you basically had to sort and play songs via the file system

Is that a sequel to Track 2 by Blur?

Oh God I hate iTunes for the compilations. I will have about 3 hours worth of music called Track # by ~~various artists~~ YouTube

I used to spend hours editing metadata for my music library on my computer but it was a constant uphill battle. My "various artists" and "unknown album" are still a mess.

Meanwhile today we have songs with much saner metadata such as https://m.soundcloud.com/laughing-mantis/x5o-p-ap-4-pzx54-p-7cc-7-eicar
