So many of the downloaded MP3's are of variable quality, due to many factors, one of which is the encoder used, a utility I have used for some time now is ENCSPOTwhich produces an Explorer like listing showing many features of each MP3 in any specific folder.

Interested then try...

Sorry I'd post it as a link if I knew how...

Very nice! I ran the proggy on about 2000 songs(had to stop it, it was taking too long to go through all of them) and all of the songs I encoded with the Lame encoder (388)were in the green. The songs in the red (bad) were all downloads, and almost all were encoded with xing or Blade.

Fruhauf (fhg)was ok to good.
bitrate was also a factor.
