What are the best freeware PC tools for finding and removing duplicate mp3 files? I've tried using iTunes but it only deletes files if they are in your iTunes folder (mine are not). WMP seems to have no tools for this.

My tagger of choice, The Godfather, has a Find Duplicates feature.

I've used Doublekiller for this with great success. And as a bonus, it isn't restricted to solely eliminating duplicate .mp3 files.

I use Dapyx MP3 Explorer to manage my MP3s, and it also has a customizable way to delete duplicates. It hasn't been updated in a while, but I use it along with Tag & Rename to manage my fairly huge MP3 collection.
