Id3 tagger
 

Does anyone know of a program that will analyze mp3s and based upon that analysis set the id3 tags?

I found a program to do it!

Welcome to MusicBrainz! - MusicBrainz

This is awesome. It even embeds album art.

I just started tagging my music after I switched to a Mac 10 days ago. I got 55 done, and probably 945 to go. And that is only the good songs that I want to listen to in iTunes.

I am very interested in seeing if this program will do it for me. It would take me until next summer at the rate I am going.

You can also add a plugin which searches for album art. Right now my only complaint is that songs can be ambiguous. That is a song can belong to many albums. In these cases I wish it would put the song on the album that is the most complete. Right now I think it just chooses arbitrarily.

A program you can use to grab album art and lyrics is GimmeSomeTune. I've had a few problems with it though causing my MacBook Pro to crash once in awhile. Also, you do need the song title and artist filled in. I've also used another non-freeware application, beaTunes, during the demo to grab BPM of the songs, and I also used another program that I unfortunately can't seem to find. If you send up needing to grab your MP3's off of an iPod, an application I've used with success is Senuti.

I use a program called Media Monkey, it grabs all pertinent info from Amazon including album art, although it's not automatic, you have to select the album you want to grab info for, which I prefer so it doesn't go wreck havoc for my collection before I realized what happened.

I think I will plan on doing this over Thanksgiving or Christmas. I am at 55 songs now, but still have many more to go.

I replied within this thread on the issue a while ago.

I have found onodrim/SecretMethod70's recommendation of 'TagScanner' to be one of the most resourceful tools I have utilized to categorize my music library. Near flawless in application.
