Confused I've tried dragging & dropping, MediaMonkey, Winamp...moving MP3's to phone

I'm beyond frustrated. I moved from an iPhone after 2+ yrs. where syncing music was an afterthought due to how easy and seamless it was. Syncing or moving music to my SD card is about to make me crazy.

I've tried dragging and dropping, tried syncing with MediaMonkey, and using Winamp. I will hook the USB cable up from the phone to my laptop and will turn on USB mass storage. I then will move the files to my music folder on my SD card. I "eject" the drive from my laptop, then turn off USB mass storage on my phone.

Sometimes the files are there, sometimes it will go through the process of syncing and/or copying the files and they should be there, but they aren't.

What in the freaking hades is the key to moving music files to my SD card? I'm burned way too much time on what should be a simple and easy process. I like everything about the Android OS compared to the iOS, but the music syncing is driving me crazy.

PLEASE HELP!!

It shouldnt be that hard. Have you tried taking the card out, and putting it directly into the computer, like a card reader?

Also, be aware, if all your mp3's were purchased from itunes, they will have DRM in them, and you cannot play those on android without removing the drm first.

They are DRM free. I've currently pulled the card and am doing a full format to see if that will solve my issues. Will update once the format is complete.

After doing a little research, I've discovered that the Nexus One has issues with a 32gb card. Maybe that's my issue.

Format did nothing. I'm going to buy a new Micro SD card tomorrow to see if the one I have is defective. If that doesn't fix it, then I'll probably go back to the dark side. I'm beyond frustrated with all of this.

If you collection is properly tagged then drag n drop should work fine, it does in every player/handset I've tried (HTC Desire, Galaxy S, HTC HD2, i8910, N900 etc).
