Also, is there away to acquire metadata for songs without manually entering it in?

Yes and no, there are tools that use properties like song length to match a database, but they only work best with unmodified and full-album rips, they rarely produce an exact match (if any) on loose files - Windows Media Player has this feature but it mostly requires part of the metadata to already be there, EasyTag has a "enter album name and select in track list" but it's far from automated...Also, is there away to acquire metadata for songs without manually entering it in?
depends on the quality of the music, codec, how long they are, ectAlso... If I have 14.5GB with just 2616 files... how much space does 30000 files is?
Same here. I'm always looking for new stuff and tire quickly of music I've heard 100 times or more.hm, i do not save up songs, i used to do that.
i tend to get bored of the songs i save up, there are very few songs i do not get bored of ..
so i always have to have some new songs.

I'm very picky about the music I listen to. It has give me a curtain feeling or sound good lyrically and musically. So it's hard to have a 10000 song list when very few appeal to me. Don't know why I'm like that.That's where the hoarder mentality comes in. I used to listen to 400-700 albums/year in my younger days, only deleted one when I absolutely hated it.
That being said, sounds like these 30000 songs is kind of a bastard collection from various sources. If you haven't organized them yourself and don't know how reliable tags, file- and foldernames are I'd delete it and start over myself.
Indeed. My first thought was a massive torrent (or combination of torrents). Aside from listening to them all, I can't think of any way to "efficiently" sift through a massive playlist. Unless the OP is speaking purely objectively, where they want highest bit rate, but I would imagine that would be rather easy to parse.That being said, sounds like these 30000 songs is kind of a bastard collection from various sources.

heres 15000 though
Heres 10000 songs in FLAC only.
does flac has a good organization or supports tagging like mp3?Delete them all. Download better songs in FLAC or at least any lossless type format. Get a better DAC, AMP, and a good quality headset/speaker for an eargasmic experience. Most of them should be tagged properly.
BTW, It's not torrent. Some people on this forum know I don't pirate.Indeed. My first thought was a massive torrent (or combination of torrents).

Regardless of where it came from, you've yet to give us the metric you use to define "best." The song you like the most? Listen to them all. Highest bit rates? Simple players like Winamp allow options to sort by bit rate. Most popular? Write down a list of sources and composers and google "Top X Video Game Songs" videos/blogs.*AHEM*
It's organized(ish) and it is a mix of MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG, and various ADPCM files from video games.

Yes, I hand ripped them all way back then.
