The program supports online freedb database lookups for selected files, allowing you to automatically gather proper tag information for selected files or CDs. Version 2.43 is a bug fixing release.
Editor's review of Mp3tag
stars
- "This tagger is it"
- Version reviewed: Mp3tag 2.43
This batch MP3 tag editor is, in the words of a user, "simply indispensable." If you're looking for a freeware ID3 tag editor with an auto-tagging feature sourced from FreeDB, Amazon, or discogs, you could do much, much worse than Mp3tag.
Besides checking and correcting song tags en masse, the lightweight application sports batch and single edits to effect such changes as case changing, auto-numbering, tag and track name flipping, and user-defined actions. There's playlist support and configuration exporting in six formats including CSV, HTML, and RTF. Support for more than two dozen languages offer the program up for international use, and a Favorite directory makes it easy to return to your music assuming you keep all your tracks in the same root folder.
The interface is a bit too simple, though. It won't be hard for anybody to navigate once you get used to the busy Toolbar and using mouse-over labels to identify button functions, but it certainly could be clarified with bigger buttons, or at least more easily identifiable icons. At worst, the user interface will slow you down, but in no way should it stop you from using this top-flight MP3 tag tweaker.

Version: Mp3tag 2.43
Pros: Tremendous batch capabilities.
Cons: Missing commnad line support to more fully utilize the capabilities of this tool.
Summary: This tool is great for cleaning up tags quickly through the scripting functions. There is a little learning curve at first but part of that is due to the non-intuitive layout of the help files. This is overridden by the flexibilities and capabilit... read more >>
