When I bought my "new" truck a few months ago, I wanted to load some songs for it to play over USB, but its stereo system only supports artists and albums (via ID3), entirely ignoring playlists or whatever folder structure there is (it just recursively traverses every folder looking for songs). I ended up writing a script[1] which churns through the myriad songs I downloaded via youtube-dl and sets their artist/album/title tags based on the folder and file names (i.e. $ARTIST/$ALBUM/$SONG.mp3). In hindsight I probably could've done this as part of the youtube-dl download process somehow, but it works well enough.
