Correcting folder structure from mp3 files downloaded from Google Play Music to import into a Plex server.

PLEXFIX for Google Play Music

I used Google Play Music before it was converted into a YouTube product. After I downloaded my entire library I noticed that the folder structure had been lost. All songs had downloaded to this format:

Artist - Album 1 - Track 1.mp3
Artist - Album 2 - Track 1.mp3
Artist - Album 2 - Track 2.mp3

So I developed a Python script to move the mp3 files into a standard directory structure based on their ID3 information. I wanted to import my music into Plex, and they recommend the following structure:

/Artist
   /Album 1
      Track 1.mp3
   /Album 2
      Track 1.mp3
      Track 2.mp3

The script will look up ID3 information using the eyed3 module and create the above folder structure, then move the mp3 file into that sub-folder.

Requirements

• Windows file system (only for special characters) see this line
• python 3.9 or higher

How to use

• git clone this repo
• Place all mp3 files in a /media folder within the root directory
• Run python3 main.py
