    There's a great app called DropSync.  I've been using it for years and it will do what you need.  It keeps your folder and PC in sync with Dropbox.  If you add songs on either device, it syncs it back, if you make tag changes, rename them, etc, it will sync back.  Delete them and they will delete too.  Great convenience this.
