This is a relatively simple Python script for managing a mass of .ogg and .mp3 files. I developed it using Python 2.4.2, on Ubuntu "Breezy". You will need the python-pyvorbis, python-id3 and python2.4-id3lib packages (that's what they're called on Ubuntu, anyway; the Python libraries you need are ID3 and ogg.vorbis).

Features:

• Rename files based on ID3 tags with weird characters removed, with optional space stripping and forcing to lowercase.
• Clean ID3 tags on .ogg and .mp3 files: replaces weird and duplicated characters.
• Organise files into folders using ID3 tag content. WARNING: this feature will remove empty directories from the start directory down. If you're worried, don't use the --output feature.

For usage instructions, run:

python music_manager.py --help
