Hi !

How do I make Mp3 tag to add a number at the end of the FILENAME in the case of duplicated filenames?

Example: ABBA-Mamma Mia.mp3 - first copy of the song

```
           ABBA-Mamma Mia(2).mp3 - second copy of the song
           ABBA-Mamma Mia(3).mp3 - third copy of the song
```

I don't think it's possible.
