I haven't used it, and I don't add new music to my collection in such bulk that I need a special tool for tagging. The thing that used to boil my blood about MusicBrainz and Discogs was album dates. I couldn't give a shit if this damn release was a 1998 remaster, what I care about is that the album was recorded in 1968, and therefore it is music of the 60s. Do not add it into my smart playlist of highly rated music from the 90s!
Anyway, after automatically trashing the dates on a whole load of albums a while back I stopped using all of those tools.
- LeoPanthera 5y agoMusicBrainz, and beets, has separate date fields for both those things. "original_year" is the year of the original release, and "year" is the year of the release of your version of the album. I have my beets configured to include original_year at the beginning of the album folder name, and then the release year in parenthesis at the end, but only if it is different.
