Years of downloads, rips, and external-drive rescues end in scatter. MLD's Consolidation Wizard combines dedupe, quality scoring, and the actual move into one workflow.
A serious music collection ends up scattered: ~/Music has some, Downloads has more, an old iTunes Media folder was never merged after a Mac switch, an external SSD from 2018 sits in a drawer with another 30 GB. Manual cleanup means dragging files, deciding which duplicate to keep, hoping you don't move something you'll want later — and usually ending up with a different mess.

Consolidating a music library combines three operations that normally happen separately: duplicate detection (acoustic, not filename), quality scoring (to keep the best copy), and the actual file move. MLD does all three in one coordinated workflow. Duplicates get collapsed automatically (highest-quality copy to target, others queued for Trash). Folder hierarchy is preserved or restructured by your preference. Every move is logged with source and destination paths, so the whole operation is auditable and reversible.
Only if you explicitly tell it to, and only via the system Trash (never hard-delete). The default flow moves files into the target folder and leaves the source structure intact for verification.
You choose: keep the existing hierarchies merged sensibly, flatten everything into one folder, or organize by Artist/Album. The Wizard shows the plan before any move.
Point Plex/Navidrome/Roon at the consolidated target folder once the cleanup is done. The media server rescans and picks up the organized library.
Yes. Every move is logged. Roll back file-by-file or as a whole batch.
No. MLD reads the audio files in the iTunes Media folder but never modifies the iTunes/Apple Music app database. Your library in Apple Music stays untouched.
Free tier covers detection and viewing. Lifetime access is $49 — $19 for the first 100 DJs.
