Default MP3 organizing utility

I have over 5000 mp3s but many are duplicates and or named incorrectly. Is there a FREE program that will organize all my MP3s and or get rid of the duplicates?

Yeah I will only pay if it is guaranteed to do what I need it to do. Free would be much better and I figured I could get lucky with one of you guys.

I actually like the music organizer that cam with my mp3 player. It organizes, plays the music, can create playlists, will sync to the mp3 player, can download tunes from their music store (I don't use that feature) and even rip cd'* to mp3'* with no DRM issues to hassle with. You can look for music many ways (title author,group, date,...) Its Creative Media Source Player/Organizer. You do need one of their mp3 players to activate the software iirc., other than that it works great, never crashes or looses info.

iTunes worked ok for the most part when I tried it. I was just tired of them changing the DRM rules and having to keep an iTunes account just to verify my stuff was still 'legal'.
That was years ago and I don't know if they still do stuff like that.

musicbrainz tagger has been awsome for me. Was Free (I think it still is) and organized all my songs 10,000+ into folders based on artist, then album, then retitled the song to track number, name, artist.
