Just 4 hour ago I was trying Foobar, after finds out that it support uPNP.
But for an unknown reason(maybe i missed something), it remove all my tagging, including album art. leaving only song title, artist and album name. ???
Over half-thousand my 2-year-worth-of-effort, properly-tagged mp3 files was put into 'default' state in a minutes. :'(
daymnit! I'll never touch that software again.

Foobar's interface is highly customizable, given you're willing to spend some time on it. If not, premade profiles are quite abundant.

You must have done something wrong, because you can't 'accidentally' remove the tags from all your files in one go.

2 years ?

Do you use a hammer and a chisel to tag your files ?

I ripped everything I have for convenience's sake, which amounts to nearly 50K files. Even if I had to retag everything from scratch, it wouldn't take more than a couple of hours.
Then again, just like Tiffanys said, a proper storage structure makes things much easier, 1 folder per artist, 1 sub-folder per album.

2 years.. not i mean it takes such time just to tag those files, but it was 2 years ago when I started to tag those mp3's properly, such as album art, composer(if any), etc.

after some recheck the cause is identified. It was replay gain(scan per-file track gain) that cause foobar to wipe my whole tag.
Yeah, I do some gain analysis to normalize the volume. But why remove whole tag? why don't just update the gain correction metadata like other player?
On some of my file it still randomly leave some important info such as artist or song title or both of them, while on other file it completely remove the tagging information.

I'm using audioshell as my mp3 tagger though.
