It's important to double check if the info WMP comes up with is actually correct. When I used it, I came across wrongly titled filesuggestions from it. I think users contribute those as well, so mistakes can happen.

I'd like to put in my two cents here if I can...

Until there is some sort of ID3 tag format that is accepted world wide I think we are simply going to have to put up with mislabled files. Some friends of mine were forever changing the same file name until they discovered their files name were being overwritten every time they logged onto a now defunct music site.

When it comes to discs some companies don't give a hoot. I have discs that were pressed in the Netherlands, and the sleeve is made in the USA. Only thing thats a pain is that some of the tracks listed on the sleeve aren't on the discs( it's a compilation disc set - 3 ).

Somes files are mislabled by mistake. One hundred percent human error. Some mislabled on purpose. Anyone who downloads anything today is taking a risk. You can accept the risk or simply not download anything at all. What a lot of people are forgeting is that some of the things that can be downloaded are real treasures - be they programs, video, or songs. They may not be around for long. Proper file labeling will help in the long run, but in the short term mislabled files are here. Better learn to tolerate them. The only alternative is to ban the person sharing mislabled media.
