Sufjan Stevens, I like his music but I’m not so peachy about the titles that he picks for his songs. Come on, is “The Black Hawk War, or, How to Demolish an Entire Civilization and Still Feel Good About Yourself in the Morning, or, We Apologize for the Inconvenience but You’re Going to Have to Leave Now, or…” really necessary? That title is 197 characters long, for those counting! When you combine that title with my naming scheme of Artist (Album) - Title, you run into problems. It wreaks havoc on my computer; I couldn’t move the file without getting an error! If I started a band, I would respect the reserved characters of various file systems (\/:*?”<>| for NTFS) and their file name length limits (255 characters). That will never happen though, so don’t worry.
