POX added tinyMediaManager as alternative to Mydia- vertigo reviewed tinyMediaManager
Can't do the most basic feature of recognizing movies named in "Movie, The" format, despite having a similar option for listing them in such a format. Hard to take a software seriously when it has such a fundamental and absurd oversight. And they want money for this? No thanks.

The best media manager hands down. It may not be the part that plays the media but it is need for any large media library. It pulls metadata and images, it renames the file (it will even compare the current name with the proposed one just to better match.
It is like ember media manager, if emm wasn't abandoned and half built. The price for a year is definitely worth supporting the devs. I haven't used the subscriptions features, but I can see using them later on.
Plus I like the idea of...

What is tinyMediaManager?
tinyMediaManager is a media management tool for movies, moviesets and TV shows, especially for use with XBMC & MediaPortal. It supports importing and exporting of NFO files, downloading of artwork and renaming of media files (along with the corresponding NFOs and artwork). Due to the fact that it is written in Java, tinyMediaManager will run on Windows, Linux and Mac OSX (and possible more OS).
Limitations of the free version: the number of loaded objects/API calls of the scraper (currently 50 movies, 10 TV series and about 50 API calls).

Plus I like the idea of supporting software that is very polished but doesn't have some larger company trying to make the product worse behind the scenes just incase they want to sell that feature back later.
tl;dr It is the best software for organizing media files, regardless if you pay for it.
Last version is by subscription, so now it is no longer a desirable software. Uninstalled.
It's incredibly full-featured; why are the devs not worthy to be paid for their work?

pro. nice clean design. con. slow as hell. it takes almost 2 mins to start. db update 5 mins. scraping a single movie 1 min. scraping subtitles not working after pc has been in sleep mode. scraping seems to default to dutch ... wtf. my advice is look for sth else.
With release of version 4 , application is severly limited for free:
thus it cannot be treated as freeware
As for version 3 - it's not limited , but I think it will not be updated if any metadata provider changes things.
Pretty much the ONLY solution for managing a substantial media collection. Others are either bloated, unusable and/or dead.
Pity it does not come with web interface/able to be run as POSIX web service or better integration with media server (updating kodi & plex libs)
