Is there a program out there that will scan my folders (each folder = 1 disc of 1 album), and rename the folder with the bitrate of the album (encoding profile if possible, ie: --r3mix, -v0n, etc) and/or FLAC if it happens to be FLAC?

ie:

/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt/

into

/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt (-v0n)/
/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt (-r3mix)/
/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt (~192kbs)/

etc etc, depending on what the files in the folder are.

I just got a 1TB drive, I'm planning on putting ALLLLL the mp3's i ripped back in the day at who knows what sort of quality on the drive now that I have enough space. I'd really like to be able to weed out the poor quality rips I made and just re-rip them, without spending a week sifting through it all.

Is anything out there that will make this possible at all or am I just dreaming? I use MusicBrainz but as far as I know it doesn't possess the capability of doing what I want, or maybe I'm overlooking it?

TIA.

Good luck. Honestly it sounds like doing this is going to tear a hole in the time-space continuum and frankly, I don't want to be there when it happens.

www.foobar2000.org should totally do this.

Mp3tag as well.

I’m using WMP11
It has a column (tag) bit rate so I can see the bit rate of every song.
Why meddle with file structure or file names if a tag can provide you with the information needed?

I doubt it. Tagz will only work on single tracks; you can't sum/average values across tracks.

He can use bitrate for CBR files, and codec_profile for the VBR files. Should be trivial to implement.

How can you tell if all tracks have the same encoder settings for each album?

It wont matter. From the OP, it looks like he wouldn't mind if there are multiple folders for one album. This would be a no brainer with Foobar2000. Just make the naming scheme

%album artist% - %date% - %album% '('%codec% %codec_profile%')'\%tracknumber% %title%

and that will mirror this

/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt (-v0n)/
/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt (-r3mix)/
/Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt (~192kbs)/

If the OP doesn't want that... I wouldn't even know where to begin to make multiple codec profiles in a single folder name....

Ahhhhhhh.
