The GodFather

The GodFather is a MP3 renamer and organizer

It allows you to eliminate all those unusual MP3 file names and convert them into a ordered name scheme, based on the artist, song, album info etc. contained in the MP3 tag. If you own many MP3, OGG, MPC, or APE files, then you know it's easier to end up with a chaotic bunch of files with strange names in wrong locations, than to have an organized collection wherein every file is in the right place, with a perfect name and tag information.

The GodFather puts order to chaos and puts you in control. No more strange file names and endless searches for "that song"–you can rename songs, update tags, restructure files on your hard disk, create and merge playlists, encode or decode with LAME/Ogg Vorbis/MPCEnc, and export and import to or from a file and play.
