Probably not.  And if there is, I don't think EphPod is the program for
it.  It's not a PC music library manager, it's a synch system for the
iPod.

What you probably want is a PC media file library.  For this, I use MP3
Collector from collectorz.com.  There are others.

Unless you're keeping the entire albums on your system as mp3s, filing
by album is an extra step that can, as you realized, lead to
duplications and confusion.
