How do you go about tagging your music?

Poorly and tediously. It's the main thing that keeps me from binge-downloading.
>>
song titles all in lowercase separated by underscores

This. We're the most anal board on 4chan. Even more than the actual gay boards. Properly tagging every field, song by song, gets me off. Often i find myself with a throbbing erection after.

i make sure i have 5+ genres of hiphop:
hip-hop, hiphop, hiphop/rap, hip-hop/rap, HIPHOP/RAP

I just use musicbee, sometimes i'm the one who tags the music because tagging is shite

>>60384265
this is pretty common, per example
>>
track title in title tag
artist feat. whoever in artist tag (get used to it)
album artist in album artist tag
tracknumbers go like 01, 02, ..., 10 etc.
always use disc number even with single disc albums
artist - year - album folders
never images embedded in the music file, always a folder.jpg
>>

oh, and NEVER a genre tag
>>
In iTunes, I put featured artists and other notes in brackets after the song title.

I only use the most general genres because I don't want too many subgenres in there. Sometimes it gets difficult to decide what genre to call them.

I make sure every song title is in title case.

I also get rid of the album artist and composer data because I don't care about those for organizing.

Most downloaded music is unclean and untagged, it's fucking annoying. And if I download 30 albums in a day I don't want to go and spend an hour tagging shit.

Is there any easier way? I use iTunes because I'm a normie pleb too.

>I only use the most general genres because I don't want too many subgenres in there. Sometimes it gets difficult to decide what genre to call them.
Same. I gave in with Rock subgenres but I refuse to put any electronica subgenres except for chillwave and chiptune.
