4 July 2002 (Thursday): okay, so i'm dumb

This is the last time I move my mp3 collection from one computer to another via FTP.

Weird... July 4th must be mp3 day. I just got done removing all the id3 tags from a couple thousand mp3s.

Odd ;)

Why would you remove id3 tags from mp3's? And why wouldn't you transfer them via FTP? You'd rather use NFS?

id3 = annoyance when coupled with ices/lame encoding which barfs on certain id3v2 tags. Not good when broadcasting (supposedly 24x7) :)

I don't use them for anything anyway, probably because i'm so anal about naming and organizational conventions. *shrug*
