What's your favourite software for organising tracks/playlists and why?
I use VirtualDJ for playout software and organise my playlists and crates through that.
However, for library maintenance and personal use I use MediaMonkey. Chris Dye (PPEntertainments) recommended it to me years ago and it's gone from strength to strength since. It's a very capable piece of software and one that I wouldn't have any reservations in recommending myself.
There are a number of music utilities I use for cleaning up tracks and the like but they've all been discussed on the forum previously.

Have to agree with everyone's comment, Virtual DJ for everything from playlists to tagging.

Mine probably isn't the best but -
Traktor (my playout software) for playlists.
Standard file system for specifying the genre and organisation.

I tend to use Denon DJ Music Manager for organising my playlists.
For tagging needs I use Tag & Rename
I buy all my music online these days, but when I used to rip cd's I used Easy CD-DA Extractor.
For Audio editing I've used Cool Edit Pro for years and years. I don't think they're around anymore though.
Media Monkey is also a great tool. I used to use it a few years ago but never got around to reinstalling it when I bought a new PC.
Rekordbox. Its veeerrrryyyyyyyyy slow and buggy but I guess it will get better with time just like iTunes did.

Can you play something with a beat ?
