ITunes file chaos

I cant recommend iTunes enough for downloading podcasts, but letting it organize your music collection could very well end in chaos. This isnt really a recommendation of a link, but I simply have to share this catastrophy:

I usually organize my music in a hierachic folder structure: The first branch is genre, then comes artist and album, and in the album folder comes all the MP3 files named with the number on the album and then the name of the recording.
I have a Tom Jones CD on my music server called Reload, where he plays with different guests. The organisation of the recordings which you see at the picture is the one that iTunes have created. One album torn into 15 subfolders.. - It has simply moved all my files from the original folders. - And it is the same with all my various artists albums, including Budda Bar - the recordings are torn into a pletora of subfolders with one recording pr folder. Its impossible to recreate the unique mix of recordings from the albums now..
I have a music server and 2 network players a "Noxon 2" and one from "Rokulab". The new organisation that iTunes have created in my folder structure makes it f.ex. impossible for me to play all numbers by Tom Jones.
If anything can make me angry, it is this. It takes time to restore 80 gigabytes of data....

Flock never really caught me

A reasonable answer to a statement like the one in the subject, could be: Whenever it is me who have failed or the software... - It takes, on the other hand, two to a tango. Which means, that I might be a lazy son of a bitch, but on the other hand - it might be a special kind of persons, who can keep an interest in link communities alive.

Have you tried it? - There are a lot of services like it - embedded in software, plugins or on webpages. Have you tried it, or any other of the other link sharing communities? One of the most fameous ones is: http://del.icio.us/

I guess that the reason that I lost my interest for it, was that I had to go through a lot of crap, to really find anything worth while - even thou thousand of other users do think that this or that link is marvellous. The idea about sharing the best on the net is great, but I dont think that it works.

I would like you to share your thoughts on it!

Now I know

In the previous post, I mentioned that I couldnt imagine what Flock could do with a blog.

Now I know: There is an add new post button, on the Flock browser toolbar, and when I press it, I can create a post for one of my two blogs, directly in a Flock userinterface... - Very nice!

Flock is yet another browser, but this one is created as a tool for people who likes to discover resources on the net.

It is a browser which enables you to share, recommend and get recommendations for links. - Its called a community browser; you share your favorites with people, and they share theirs. The resources (websites) gets a score according to how popular they are, and the users give them keywords, which might make it easier to find a relevant link.

The program is a pre. beta release, so its too early to say it it will make critic mass. It looks nice thou, and it works fine - as far as I can see, but I have on the other hand only used it for an hour.

I did create this blot, because the program also works with blogs, but I havent any idea about how, and - why.
