Question About File Re-naming

To my knowledge none of the MTU programs can help with this. I have about 3 albums of music from various artists that my wife imported into MP3 files. She only used the title of the songs in the name and put them in folders with the artist name as the folder name.
What I need to do is change the file names to be Title - Artist for importing into Hoster (in mass groups) with Batch mode of 99 where I don't have the oportunity to insert this information.
I hate to have to rename these files one by one and would rather be able to do them in larger groups. Anyone know of a program that will do this????

This the website in the appropriate area for what you are looking for.

As far as I know you can only append to the beginning of the file name, but you can still work with that when you import on Hoster.

This is one I use: http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/Main_Intro.php

Looks a bit daunting at first but works well and it's freeware they just ask for donation.

Re: Question About File Re-naming

Thanks guys. Roy the one you listed worked like a champ. Took me all of 5 minutes to rename those files and that was only because my brother called and interrupted me.

Thanks again. I am going to go ahead and close this now so it doesn't become a rambling mess.
