Yet another cool program
While I was at work and should have been working I found another cool program. This is in response to yesterdays post about Ampache. I installed it and indexed my collection overnight. I then realized the state of my id3 tags. What a mess! Some of them were empty. Others had incorrect or lacking information.
So, today I found MusicBrainz which scans, identifies and tags your collection for you. Of course it doesn’t always identify everything but it has found & tagged the majority of my collection. The remaining I can handle.
The only downside is its windows-based software (with Linux on the way). I know most of you have access (or closet access) to windows anyway. You’ll figure it out.

Check out easytag if you want to … well, easily tag the remaining collection.
I tried easy tag, discovered for some amazing reason it will recognize a whopping 0 out of 10k id3v2 tags. Nice looking … if it worked. Cowbell had no issues with my tags, but its not a true batch edit solution.
