(yes, I know, 3 halves)
Those are usually called "thirds".  :P
...but only usually.

Yeah, most of my ID3 tags are good, BUT some dont have full tags, oops?  Oh well, I can get it to work eventually.

I do miss having the portability of my laptop though

The program I wrote (and I presume iago's performs in this manner too), you can specify the format of the target filename, ie: "%Artist% - %Title%", so as long as the ID3 tags contain the information you specify in the format, you should be good.

Nope, I designed mine solely for Hitmen, and consequently for myself and Newby.  It always does:
artist/artist - year - album/track-song.mp3

You can grab it at this URL, if you want to try it:
http://www.javaop.com/~ron/code/MoveMP3.jar

Run it in a console with "java -jar MoveMP3.jar", and it'll ask you for the directories and stuff.  It isn't pretty or anything, I didn't see much point since it was a one-off thing, I haven't used it since the first time.
