Organizing Import Tagging Maintenance

Preamble

When I bought the Hifidelio early 2007 it was by and large because the idea of having all your data (the music) and the meta data (the description of the contents like song, artist, composer, etc) in one system appealed to me.

I enjoyed the HF tremendously but the sound quality has never been to my liking (it is not bad but I do have a High-End neurosis).
I bought an outboard DAC. This improved sound quality substantially.

If you have any question about your Hifidelio, http://www.hifidelio-user.de/ provides the answer. It’s a forum where some real guru’s can tell you everything about the HF (the standard abbreviation of the Hifidelio).
If German is not your native tongue, don't worry. Most of them are strikingly fluent in the English.
