I spent way too much time back in the day updating metadata of music, renaming them, etc

Same here. I had my iTunes library meticulously organized. Finding mp3s, downloading them, importing them, then updating the metadata.

And now I just use Spotify lol

From MusicBrainz - it can identify the audio fingerprint of music and tag its Metadata appropriately. It never worked for me back in c. 2002 though because my pc was too slow to run the analysis - and I gave up.

My first smartphone had a faster clock speed than that beige XP tower.
