Keep track of the upcoming features with the project's issues
Plex, Beets, Koel, as well as iTunes are awesome solutions if you have a 'simple' music collection, but they are not tailored for music collectors, who usually have multiple versions of a single album, multiple files for one single song (from multiple album releases). Therefore, their library ends up clustered and unpleasant to browse and use.
The idea behind Meelo is to have a pleasant way to browse and enjoy your collection and making it the best one possible.
The best music collection is a collection that is fully useable in any music server (like one mentioned above). The only way to reach this goal is to make the music collection independent metadata-wise, i.e. having all the metadata embedded in the files themselves. To use Meelo, you'll need a 'clean' collection: either with embedded metadata or standard file/folder architecture. Using iTunes or Beets is a great way to start.
