Process

Find all files with incorrect extensions
- find Artist ! -type d -regex "[^.]+"
  replace "Artist" with directory to search. It cannot contain or be "." due to the regex used.
Find files that are DRM protected and remove them or the protection

#!/bin/bash
if /tmp/mplayer/mplayer.exe -ao dummy -identify "$1" 2>&1 | egrep -i -q -s "encumbered with drm"
then
        echo $1;
fi

Convert remaining all non-MP3 files to MP3 with same quality and transfer tags
Use MP3Tag to normalize track numbers to 2 digits.
This will help in fixing tags using Jaikoz in a later step
Open Folder in Jaikoz
- sort by track number then subfolder
- open

-= Goals =
-*Proper tags on all tracks
-The definition of "proper" has to be established
-*Normalize Audio using something like ReplayGain
-My preference would be to have some way to playback tracks where levels are more or less the same.  Ideally this would be by way of a reversible or non-destructive modification possibly through tags.  ReplayGain esp. via MP3Gain implementation is once such possibility.
-*Maintain artificial collections
-When merging into my library a collection such as "100 top hits of 200" or "Rolling Stone's 500 Best R&R Songs" preserve the collection while also staying true to the over all organizational scheme.  This might be done via user defined tags or playlists
-*Create a folder structure and file naming system that works even without a "smart" player
-*Remove "unnecessary" duplicates when merging new collections
