But beware you wiill lose any genre tag values you added during ripping (most rippers provide some basic tagging), Picard does not add genre, and ytou may prefer some of the naming you had alreday entered.

I think the user is just inexperienced with Picard.

Yep very true... if you enable searching online, sources then you can get the genre back using the TADB scraper.

The idea of ripping genres at source, seems a little inefficient to me but i'm guessing a lot of people still do that or want to overide them.
