How Do You Organize Your Music?

I have a tough time sometimes because I have a LOT of electronic music and those guys are notorious for having many aliases. I usually lump all of their releases under the most popular alias. For example Richie Hawtin records under his own name, FUSE, Plastikman, From Within(with Pete Namlook), etc. but I file all of his stuff under Plastikman 'cuz that's his most popular act. I'd also put all solo releases from band members under the band --->Edgar Froese goes after all of my Tangerine Dream cds. Occasionally a solo release I have filed with the band gets their own place in the alphabet when they make it big themselves--->Feist gets moved from the end of Broken Social Scene and into the "F's" when she started doing iPod commercials. I'll also file comps with an artist if I primarily have it for the song they contributed. My system wouldn't make sense to most people if they just looked at the spines unless they really knew this type of music.

Thomasedison beat me to the High Fidelity reference that proghead mentioned. Seriously though if anyone into records has not seen that movie they should be ashamed. Plus it was probably the last good movie John Cusack has starred in. He's been in some stinkers for almost 10 years now. And to all you classical collectors...just looking at the headache of how to organize those records does nothing to make me want to get into classical music any deeper. Most of the classical titles I have are filed under Reich, Stockhausen, Satie, Varese, etc.
