how does everyone organize their music files

Just wanted to see if anyone knows of a program that'll do it or an easier way to sort out your music files. I have mine under a music foldeer and under that (trance,dnb,breaks,miscellaneous,house-tribal,etc....)  If anyone has better and easier ideas let me know thanks.

i have mine organized by dj name,every dj has his own folder.u open the folder u find tracks then a folder called sets with all the sets in it..thats the best way for me

i organize my downloads by download date, my rips by rip date, when my 200GB hdd space overfills once every couple of months, i burn 20-30 dvds at one shot, also marking them with months' names  so that when i need something, i'll look up here when it was posted and easy find it by file-dates if on hdd or by correctly marked dvds.. i have about 200 dvds already... basically i only use them to reseed something if noone else does... but lately noone wants any reseeds pretty much...

slash yours is a really good idea but until i hit tigerdirect.com up for some hd's im gonna go with the first response it seems better than sorting by genres. thanks

dvds + whereisit. noone use it? it's a great software for cataloging disks/files... it stores a lot of data about files (mp3: id3,id3v2,bitrate, etc, images: THUMBNAILS, sizes, format), so it makes easy for me finding almost anything...

i have one folder only with 2884 sets at the moment...itunes does the rest

one folder called "My Music"  

i use winamp!

that would have to be what you use to listen to your music.

for sets each month has a folder wich contains all the sets of the month ...as for tracks 320k tracks have thier own folder ....vinyls i put 20 of them in a numbered folder begining from 1

by month i download them in...and sub folders with set
example:
aug2006===>sets for aug 2006(folder inside main folder)
this is the best way ive tried so far...causeif by dj name cant see where i can put remixes...
if someone has a better way plz help me

 .. same here

i have folders named , tribalmixes 1 , 2 , 3 .. and so on . I have'nt arranged them but i do burn sets as often as i can .

yeah i`ve done similar to gwende,3 folders,tribal 1,2,3.each one of them in a different drive,due to all the music.my hard d is nearly full   ..whats funny is that i hardly have any films,or games on the computer.and its a 120gb hard d.  peace out

one folder and a few subfolders.Then all we need is winamp and a J button
