I'm going on a long road trip next month that will involve some 30 hours of driving over the course of a week. I'm treating myself to a new MP3 player, and I need to fill it with plenty of music.
Over the years I have accumulated thousands of songs spanning a century. I can't take them all with me! I don't even know if they are all good - binary encodings of old 78RPM (and older) material may be too scratchy to hear, and I have never taken the time to organize my collection.
So what I need is a file browser that will let me list all the song files in a folder, play a bit of each one, and tag the ones I want so that I can then copy the tagged files off to the MP3 player.
Any suggestions?

mpd and mpc
What I would do is use xbindkeys, and put this in .xbindkeysrc
"mpc next"
c:???
"echo cp \"$(mpc --format %file% | head -n1 )\" /mnt/mp3 >> ~/copygoodmusic.sh"
c:???
and then run
bash ~/copygoodmusic.sh
edit: removed a '

I would suggest Amarok (1.x), you can create a playlist with all the songs, listen to them shortly and just delete everything you don't want out of it. Tagging is also supported and it can convert music directly to the format your mp3 player eats if you want. Furthermore it has a gui, so it might not be the "cool" solution
