On: The music classifying nightmare

[tshaddox]

Yeah, it's not going to be a big storage hit in reality (and even if it were, you could just rely on file system level compression/deduplication). I, like the author, just enjoy musing about the "perfect" way to organize a music library.

Some artists re-record or alter their song on secondary release. Or if it is live performance.

Deduplication should be done by algorithm that detects that it is same binary copy -- not through tags.
