O.P. needing help organizing my music
does anybody know a site that can tell me what genre the music i have belongs under?

i'm asking this because i am not good at telling what genre most of my music should be under. i have a very big mix of all sorts of music.


thanks.


EDIT: i'm sorry i forgot to mention it's in iTunes that i need my music organized. and its not music that i have purchased from the music store. these are albums that i have downloaded from bit torrent. and i know that most of the songs are not in the right genre. like the group called "puddle of mudd" the genre it was under was "blues". and i even know that it  is not blues music.

Assuming the original genre was correct, yes...
But the case here is that he has files he is not sure of, and that he suspects/knows that many are incorrectly listed so he asked for somewhere to check to what genre the artist x or song y belongs.
I actually did this earlier today, and Wikipedia worked just fine. If you got a huge database it will be slow, but if you just have to check a couple of songs then it's not that bad.

I recommend http://www.allmusic.com

Might take some time to look all of it up, but hey... :P

I don't use the Genre in my iTunes Library, too much hassle ;)
