Are you VGM perfectionist?

I can be a perfectionist at times. Whether or not I take a rip over a soundtrack depends on a few things, such as the quality of the rip and whether or not certain tracks exist on a rip that don't on the soundtrack, or vice versa. Or I'll take a rip if no official soundtrack seems to exist.

The tagging is one thing I can be quite a perfectionist with. I have so much VGM that usually anything I download gets at least one thing changed, that one thing being the genre. 'Soundtrack' is just wayyyy too general in my collection. In the case of VGM, the genre gets changed from 'Soundtrack' or 'Game' to the console the game was on. That can vary in games on more than one platform; with some I have the genre set to the platform the game was originally released on, or sometimes the console I first played it on.

One pet peeve of mine in the tagging (aside from when they're often badly done, like with FFShrine. I usually only get something from there if I can't find it anywhere else) is when the track number appears in the track title. iTunes organizes the tracks of an album by track number already, if they exist for those files. So, having to remove the numbers from the track titles and/or put them in the track number tag is always a pain. I use iTunes primarily for stuff like tag editing, but that's one of those things that isn't so easily taken care of.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
