I do this precisely because either my mind can change (I would finally
prefer composer not being set to "COMPOSER" tag, but rather with
"ARTIST" tag, or I set Orchestras in BAND tags but I would prefer them
to be set in ALBUMARTIST) or the software I'm using isn't using the
tags in the same way the previous one did, or id3tag v12 his just out
of the labs and everything I did before had changed.

All these reasons makes me use my very own tags and "batch copy" all my
files in a row with a tool like MP3Tag according to my mind or the
behavior of the media program I'm using to read them.

If you're about to rip a thousand files, you definitely should rip them
in flac or other lossless format (iTunes user prefer iTunes lossless
format, but I've been told there's a lot of annoying problems with it)
