  • beets

    music library manager and MusicBrainz tagger

    In my setup I have a VM with 2 CD drives attached. Insert disc, starts up abcde to rip with my settings, copies ripped files to a processing folder, and then I have beets running every few hours on that for metadata/file naming/final archiving. Works great I wish I could give you a better explanation but I set it up years ago and it "just works".
