This software is written by Artur Glavic (artur.glavic@gmail.com)
and released under the GNU General Public License version 3
which is part of the distribution as gpl.pdf file.

Description:
  I wrote this little program to be able to easily create mp3 
  sticks to play in my car directly from my Amarok collection). 
  For this purpose the stick needs a flat folder structure and 
  be sorted alphabetically before copying. The small Qt4 dialog 
  has a drop area where you can drag mp3s (from file manager or 
  Amarok, perhaps also other programs) onto it and it will read 
  the ID3 tags and create a sorted folder structure with "Artist 
  - Album" and shows the number of tracks and size it would take. 
  When you are ready filling the collection press OK to copy it.

  At the moment there aren't many options but I could put some more 
  effort into it, when someone is intereste.

Installation:
  I did only test the software on Ubuntu Linux, 
  so additional instructions could be needed
  for other systems.
  
  Install the packages for PyQt4 and mutagen, this should be all:
    
    $ apt-get install python-qt4 python-mutagen

Execution:
  Just make the file mp3drop.py executable, thats it.
    
  E.g. in the extraction path type:
    $ chmod a+x mp3drop.py
