You might also have the problem that the music on your computer is a mess. Programs like WMP or iTunes are not capable to identify the music and sort it into categories. I am looking for a solution (a program, a mod or a add-on) which scans my computer for music, erases duplicates, adjusts volume, categorizes in genres & quality, adds missing titles and artist names. I don’t want to spend a year doing it on my own. Looking forward to your help!

don't use wmp or itunes to rip cd's.
use "cdex"(free) from www.download.com to rip cd's or "cd ripper" from www.xilisoft.com
-cddb enabled
-ripping options
-file storage by any parameter year, genre, title, artist, track, etc.
for batch file processing use "tagscanner"(free) from download.com
-choose folder, add/remove to favorite
-id3 v1, v2, ape, full
-manual/automatic tag edit "ctrl + s = save"
-lookup data
-rename from file tags
-create tags from file name
-output files in new directory by structure of choice: year, genre, title, artist, track, etc.
for duplicate file finder use "Duplicate Music Files Finder"(free) from www.download.com
-choose folder to search
-displays filename & size
-advanced comparison method available
and then there is "Media Moneky" (LE: free; Full: purchase) from www.download.com
-it does everything you are looking for. rip, tag edit, etc
-try, if you like, and only if you like, buy.
-advanced version of winamp.
-i have it, but i would never ever recommend it.
Your welcome

Thanks you guys. I sounds like both the Tag Scanner, DR Tag Plus and Duplicate Music File does the job when it comes to sort and select your files and of course deleting dublicates but what about Media Monkey?! If it does the job why would you not recommend it? I still need to figure out, how I might be able to secure the quality of the music files concerning audio sound level so I know that the music file is not of bad quality. But the whole tag scanning sound reasonable I just need one program, a modification or add-on to do the whole package.

that would be nice. one prog does it all.
except each small program such as tag scanner is specifically designed for one purpose. and takes care of that purpose well.
media monkey.. i have the registered version of it, but never use it.
for me it's winamp, tag-scanner, vdj, windows explorer, xilisoft cd ripper, napster, and soundtaxi.
i use these guys for everything. nothing else works for me.
rip, dl, rename, convert, move, organize, batch process them all. play, mix, fade, get paid... where am i going with this..
oh yea.. to the bank.

there is one additional software, if you have the money for it.
mp3nity : a play on words for mp3 infinity
it's awesome.. play, analyze, convert, batch, explore, id3, rename, batch, picture, lyrics, you name it. played with it a long time ago. the trial expired, and i went back to tagscanner. this software is the only one i would say better than tagscanner.
hope that helps.
