Poor schemas, poor cataloguing: why music tagging sucks

One common issue that many music enthusiasts face with their local music library is the tedious process of tagging. While tools like beets or MusicBrainz Picard can help streamline the process, there are still fundamental issues with the design of tags for music and the way they are applied. This not only makes exploring music more difficult, but it also limits the potential of our music collections and leaves many opportunities untapped.

Tagging schemas are often incomplete, inconsistent, and incorrect, making it difficult to navigate music libraries and discover new music. This hinders the ability to find what you're looking for and prevents full exploration of the potential of music libraries.
