Help: Tag many files
Anyone have any suggestions on how to have 1,000 songs or so tagged automatically.
I have been going through each by hand with Windows Media 10...
Works okay, but I want it done now.
Thanks.

does anyone have anyother ideas....
I dislike having to manually go through all my songs.....
Is there any program that can take files and by their filename
artist - title
gather the tag information????
Any ideas on how to get this done in the fastest, easiest way.
Thanks.

Did you try the "autolookup" features built into tag & rename? F10 is your friend. It fetches information from the net (amazon and cddb) and put
this into the tags. Although not as backleaned as gathering info from the filename, it kindof works 
Wish I knew of a better method though, so shout if you find one

"music brainz" (http://www.musicbrainz.org/) is exactly what you are after. Try it
and you wont look back. And for all manual tagging I use mp3tag studio (http://www.magnusbrading.com/mp3ts/) which is awesome.
Enjoy!

Take it from a Pro! ...I personally tagged and re-tagged over 20.000 songs with 'Tag & Rename'. Maybe you need to get some exercise at first but
once you learn to know the program you will never try something else.

Yeah I agree. Tag&Rename sucks balls the first time you load it up, but its a neccesisary evil. After you look around for months tryin got find
some easier way to do it and promplty install 20 different crappy programs you will come back to it and do it primaraly by hand. I did 9700 songs in
chunks of albums, (10 or so songs per), and did it in about a 12 hour Redbull induced frenzy. It was well worth it. Now the mp3s are not mistagged
by some silly computer program screwing it up.
