I spent way too much time back in the day updating metadata of music, renaming them, etc

[–] 3FingersOfMilk@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same here. I had my iTunes library meticulously organized. Finding mp3s, downloading them, importing them, then updating the metadata.

And now I just use Spotify lol

[–] TheCaconym@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I still do all this shit. I'll never switch to those DRM infested subscription services bullshit

I just use a cracked version of Spotify ;)

What I hate most about spotify is that you can't block artists. It's always pushing stuff I don't like and I can't do anything to stop it

[–] binboupan@lemmy.kagura.eu 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You absolutely can block artists

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does it require a paid sub? Because I never found a way with a free account

[–] binboupan@lemmy.kagura.eu 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, you can do it under artist profile

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How/where? There's nothing on the site

[–] binboupan@lemmy.kagura.eu 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know about the web player but on the mobile app you press the same three dots and select "Don't play this".

Thanks Picard for being an absolute legend at automating all this stuff, i do it on my pc too despite being extremely lazy.

From MusicBrainz - it can identify the audio fingerprint of music and tag its Metadata appropriately. It never worked for me back in c. 2002 though because my pc was too slow to run the analysis - and I gave up.

My first smartphone had a faster clock speed than that beige XP tower.

Getting those album covers looking MINT!

[–] UsernameIsTooLon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Cant have no low res album covers

[–] shastaxc@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I even typed up all the lyrics to all my songs.

[–] roon@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I spent a good amount of time synchronizing lyrics too lol

[–] scottywh@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Ugh.. the time I've spent, in general, organizing and categorizing files of various types ... Thanks
