TuneTagger - another automatic tag fixer

TuneTagger is an automatic id3 tag fixer and artwork download program that works on the songs you have playing in iTunes. As a song plays, TuneTagger searches for missing id3 info, lyrics and artwork - all changes are subject to your approval. (good idea!)

Musorg 0.2 Version Out Now

Last time I looked at Musorg, it was just another simplistic tag editor. Version 0.2 adds bug fixes as well as multiple directory/file selection, improved FreeDB lookup and added support for additional tags like "Part of Compilation", "Album Artist" and "Disc Number".

Did I mention it's freeware? Go check it out!

Mac ID3 Tag Editors

MP3-Info CMM	Handy Contextual Menu Module that lets you apply common rename patterns to individual mp3s without opening a full-fledged tag editor. Great stuff.
jiald3	Recent addition... still need to test this one, but it doesn't look like a very complete solution.
autotagx	From their website: "AutoTagX automatically tags and organizes your MP3 files with the simplicity of drag-and-drop and the power of internet music databases." They're working on a beta release now.
idtunes	These folks have the gall to charge for cleaning up your tags. "Less than a penny per song"
jajuk	A java tagger.
media rage	Probably the most complete set of tools, but the interface is really frustrating and annoying.
mp3tagger	Another java tagger.
itag	Simple and incomplete tagger
id3x	Another popular choice, but not very complete and hasn't been updated in years.
mp3freaker	This is one of those programs that "automatically" cleans your tags. I have to check this one out again, since there is a new version.
taggerwocky	Funny name. Ancient tag editor.
tritag	My current choice. Doesn't do it all, but the way it handles getting tags from filenames is easy and powerful.
tunetags	Not a tag editor per se, but a program to add keywords to your music.
music box	Mainly a music file database, which also has some tagging functions.
id3 editor	Another simplistic tagger.
itag (also)	Not a very original name. The icon is a foot with a toe tag.
tag	Another simplistic and incomplete editor.
ieatbrainz	I've tried this one a few times. It tries to fix tags automatically, but it's slooooow.
mp3 pretty namer	Ancient and missing the essential ability to get tags from the name of the file.
audiferousid3	Haven't really looked at this one yet... doesn't look promising
better finder rename	Does the renaming part, but missing the part where you get tags from the filenames.
music renamer	Another renamer missing most other functions.
id3 editor	Another simplistic editor...
itunify	Does some things that other tag editor might not... but this isn't a complete solution.
musicguru	Mostly for organizing the files rather than doing many tag editing functions.
ubertunz	Ancient player, editor.
idInfiltr8	Simplistic tag editor
audioTT	Yet another java tagger.
easyTAG	GTK+ editor that I could maybe get to work...
picard	Next generation tagger from MusicBrainz - Mac version not out yet.
skooby renamer	A file renamer rather than a tag editor
jaikoz	A java editor that's promising, but I hate the interface.
corripio	Mostly a artwork/lyric finder. Hoping they add some tag editing functions.
musorg	Simplistic tag editor, claims to do freedb lookup... will investigate further
id3mod	Doesn't really do tag editing... changes tag encoding for Double Byte Character System (DBCS) like Japanese and Chinese.
qloud	Add keywords to your artists, albums and songs. iTunes plugin. Similar to TuneTags, but suggests tags. In alpha.
Doug's Applescripts	Doug's Applescripts for iTunes include tag manipulating scripts.
