Mp3tag is better.

"It's an "ok" program." I like how you can search Amazon and other sites for mp3 tags. Renaming is very quick. Editing the tags is really easy and simple. What I don't like is that the album picture tags don't show up on some of my devices, like my cellphone and my mp3 player. I was using another program before this, and I didn't have any issue with that. All in all, this program does tagging as it's supposed to. Other than my specific issue with the album picture tags, I didn't find any problems. That's why I only gave this a 3... out of 5. (trying to be an X-Play reviewer, lol)

"Cant ask for much more than this" Does everything you would want a tagger to do. I'm finding more shortcuts than the instructions provide. Nothing wrong with the tagger. The drawback comes with the orginizations the search engine connects to. The orginizations have the real problem. If you need to tag, sort, or organize your collection....you've come to the right place. This program adds warp speed to fixing massive amounts of music.

It is only checking for updates at start up which like in most programs can be turned off in the options. I've tried many tagging programs (including the inferior mp3tag) and I find this simple and great for batch renaming of tags and file names. I could do without the skin but it's not distractingly ugly like some

I assume you are referring to me by "DB", anomoly. I don't understand why, and I don't care. Keep up the ad-hominem nonsense, though, and find out how long it takes to get your account closed. There is nothing wrong with my previous review. Disliking an interface and ease-of-use is a perfectly valid reason for forming an opinion. Like catchpole, you'll just have to deal with it. And yes, I did try TagScanner. P.S. anomoly, try switching to decaf.

If DB says it's too difficult for him to use then this is obviously a terrible program. Great review moron. From now on a****** your nickname is DB. Get used to it. This does not handle many of the extended tags that mp3tag does such as replaygain, but on the other hand, TS reads a folder of flac files I have fine and the latest version of mp3tag said the files had NO tags. Mp3 tag will work portably but then must write directly to your apdata folder. So it really is NOT portable like this, which does NOT need the apdata folder access (that it doesn't write to).

Don't worry; some day you'll get a job and you won't have to rate purely on cost. :)

As a longtime user of MP3Tag I decided to see what all the fuss is about. I was pleasantly surprised. I am not a big fan of skins either but the default one was easy to use. Has pretty much the same functions as MP3Tag (Album art, playlists, copy tag to/from filename, export to htm/csv, is portable etc.). It's a matter of preference (which GUI you are more comfortable with). Both are highly recommended for managing ID TAG info for your media files.

The best, thank you to the russian Sergey Serkov!

I am sorry I am with emanresU deriseD, I don't like the skin either. More importantly it's not easy to use and very fragmented, the only thing +ve I can say it renames very fast. Compared to Tag&Rename its very average.

Oh well, i guess that everything is too hard for emanresU deriseD : ) EDIT Plasticpig72, you can pay $29.95 (about Tag&Rename) if you want to pay about crap, i don't. And by the way, TagScanner is very easy to use. Just makes me wonder if these two numbnuts really tried TagScanner.

"Exquisite!" Works as claimed, and works very well. For anything it can't do, it facilitates. You might have to change some tags around yourself.

comprehensive, easy to use occupies substantially all of a graphical user interface area

Especially "Tag Processor" and "List Maker" modules Everything is OK! For ID3 Tag, a list template: # Tagscanner export script $file_name ID3TagList.csv $file_notes Excel-friendly comma-separated text $file_encoding ansi $file_writebom 1 $document_open TRAC;DISC;TITLE;ARTIST;ALBUM;ALBUMARTIST;YEAR;GENRE;COMMENT;COMPOSER $select %filename%,0 %track%;%disc%;%title%;%artist%;%album%;%albumartist%;%year%;%genre%;%comment%;%composer% $endselect $document_close

Easy to use - as little or as much of the features as you wish. Doesn't take up much space on HDD - everything showing on the same page - no flitting back & forth... None found so far... Choices of how to put in order, artist, titles, album, location etc - use it as little or as much of it as you like. All info shows on the front page at a glance, able to play any of the songs from the same view.Didn't realise I had the same copy of so many songs!Have recommended to others who are grateful such a program exists and it is free!

Can't tell what I like since I can't use it. no documentation means I have no idea whether it is any good or not. Many seem to think it is very good, but I don't have the time to randomly click until something happens. I need a place to start. no documentation.

Rated 10/50 by cra777 at Apr 13, 2010

I have no idea what is any good about this product. The nonexistent documentation makes this program unusable. It makes the old Unix manuals seem like a dummies book. Unknown quality due to no documentation whatsoever.

User friendly interface; very fast; accurate and reliable information. Does not always find international artists/song information.

- Undo feature- Many options No help, but is OK once you learn doing tests

different file-tag renaming options, works great for mass editing Interface is Cluttered, album art download needs to be automated
