Kanji for the artists' name, and the album title and track names are all dependent on how the artist has decided to put them. So if MOON has Caps and blossom doesn't, I will just put it as that way. (VERY particular xD)

Kanji and Romanji

In the media player I have the song and artist tagged as the artist has put it, eg:
Addicted to love - w-inds.
INSPIRE - 浜崎あゆみ
ゼブラクイーンのテーマ - ゼブラクイーン

But then I have the media file saved in romanji, eg:
Music\ZEBRA QUEEN\Zebra Queen - NAMIDA ~Kokoro Abaite~\02. Theme of Zebra Queen.mp3

That's what I try and do, too. Sometimes I'm too lazy to change the file name to romaji when I save it though lol.

Now I use Romaji because my Zune doesn't support Asian characters, but I used to use Kanji, too.

I use romaji only, because I must have my music in alphabetical order.

however it is presented on official websites, tracklists, and/or sources. if the song title is in katakana, i label it in katakana. if it's in English, i label it in English. if there are symbols, i label it with symbols. etc...

for example,
中島美嘉 - SAKURA~花霞~
浜崎あゆみ - MOON
タッキー&翼 - サヨナラの向こう
Mizca - ダメよ♡
