Amazing tagging software, makes organizing a collection sooo much easier. Especially if you go to the forums and get or update the scripts people write for it. You still have to tweak things your own way, but at least it's not as unfriendly as foobar2000!. I'd also highly recommend Album Art Downloader (for grabbing covers), Mixmeister BPM analyzer if you want BPMs tagged, and the lyricsplugin ( http://www.hydrogenaudio...dex.php?showtopic=62821) for getting lyrics in foobar2000 (I think the lyricswiki part is broken; also remember to set the lyrics to store in the UNSYNCEDLYRICS field for compatibility). I also use foobar2000 for setting replaygain in tags. |

Still the best. |
| bufftbone | Oct 23, 2009 | 2.44e Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Still good. The fixes are minor at best, nothing that affects me personally. Still one of the best tagging programs out there. Borthr has healed. Still a slob but healed. |
| bufftbone | Aug 17, 2009 | 2.44 | 5 out of 5 |
The addition of the cover only download is good. It doesn't help much for smaller indie bands sch as "Low of the Low" or "Venomin James." For those who listen to Britney Spears though will be quite pleased. In other news, I told Mm about the slob of a brother. You should have seen the welts on his ass. She beat him up much worse then the time Hulk Hogan went up against that 500lb Panda Bear for the WWF/WWE Unified heavyweight belt where the winner got the belt and the right to use their likeness in the "Save the HGH" campaign. |
| bufftbone | Jun 8, 2009 | 2.43a | 5 out of 5 |
Well, a slightly new version, nothing noticable. I did notice that my brother is a slob and doesn't pick up after himself that much. I'm think I'm finally going to tell Mom and watch her whip his behind with the wooden spoon. Clips on You Tube! |

Whoa! HUGE honking bug in either the tag export or import form text systems. It makes mincemeat of the file names, hopelessly screwing them up. That area of the program needs a SERIOUS de-lousing. THREE stars until it's fixed. |
| bufftbone | Mar 30, 2009 | 2.43 | 5 out of 5 |
You NEED to use this! Without this your MP3 collection (legal or otherwise) will decrapatate and wither away into nothingness! Simple fact: using MP3tag will make you a hit with the ladies (not the guys, just the ladies)! |
| roymccoy | Mar 21, 2009 | 2.42h Beta | 5 out of 5 |
When it comes to mp3 tags I'm a perfectionist and HATE improper naming of my music, that has grown to 30K+ files from 10 years of torrent downloading. So I've tried lots of different programs to do clean up all the variations of incorrect or missing tags, and the best tool for this job is without no doubt Mp3tag! Easy, fast, and free! Thanks to Florian Heidenreich for this brilliant program! |

The best (kickass) tagger on earth! With an amazing array of features. I only wish the author would provide an option of disabling the splash screen. |
| pdiddle | Jan 6, 2009 | 2.42c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I could kiss the man who wrote this beautiful piece of art. Seriously, it is that good at what it does. It works. It works so well, i've been re-tagging and sorting 30+gb of data, nearly nonstop without a single hitch or hiccup. It does not crash. It does what it does very, very well. The ability to add external programs makes this one of the most powerful programs i've seen yet to tame your collection of legally owned mp3s. It's very easy to use, although I wish I could find a good guide on how to add external programs/tools. Sweet! I've also found that if you are having a tough time finding matches, as a last ditch effort try FreeDB/web search. Once that straightens out your files you can try it again with amazon or discogs. That's worked more than a few times for me. |
| mdmower | Jan 5, 2009 | 2.42c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Simply the best tool for masstagging large collections of audio files (not just mp3!). I set up several "Actions" and with the click of a button, all those actions are performed at once on any number of files. The feature set is far beyond any in-player tag editor. I even prefer it to foobar2000's masstagger. Frequently updated with new features and fixes as well. Couldn't ask for more. |

@dejammer Have you considered it to be a false positive before giving that poor rating and spreading FUD? 37 of the latest spyware/virus/trojan scanners found nothing: http://www.virustotal.co...ee9398688ec3588a2602a9a |
| dejammer | Dec 1, 2008 | 2.42b Beta | 5 out of 5 |
OK folks, I've redone scans by five other utilties and either something is really wrong with them or Spyware Terminator is way ahead of the curve. I'm inclined to conclude that I'm getting a false positive from SpywareTerminator. So the: Trojan.Pakes.lth must be a falsie. I'm rerating Mp3Tag with a 5 for doing everything I needed with ease, and really fast too. Thanks Florian, I shall be making a donation. |

@blahman2005 the app is virus free (nod32/avira) stop using smurf's antivirus i've been using mp3tag for a long time, it has great tagging abilities and renaming features but sometimes it's hard to find a match between album and mp3s not tagged, winamp tagging most times works better... |
| JEdwardP | Oct 27, 2008 | 2.42 | 5 out of 5 |
It's long been the best tagging app. available for Windows, and it runs well enough via WINE to easily outstrip both EasyTag and exfalso in Linux. The recent "review" here claiming a trojan in the executable was undoubtedly the result of a false positive. |
| boaz | Oct 26, 2008 | 2.42 | 5 out of 5 |
I have found this mp3 tagger to be the best I have used. I've enjoyed using it for quite some time now. I especially like the renaming functions, for multiple files. Thank you Florian Heidenreich, for keeping the program updated on a regular basis. |
| allthebestnamesgone | Oct 26, 2008 | 2.42 | 5 out of 5 |
There are no trojans or malware in this program whatsoever. That reviewer below is a complete twit. |
| NLight95 | Oct 26, 2008 | 2.42 | 4 out of 5 |
I have found this to be the MP3 tag editor of choice. It uses very little resources and has exhaustive options to organize your MP3 library relatively easy. If there's one glaring issue I've had with MP3tag since its inception it's the _very small_ toolbar icons. It would be nice to have larger icons available with text as an option. |

Superb software - makes management of my music collection easy, accurate and informative. I'm tired of "reviews" which are entirely devoted to insulting a previous reviewer. Stick to commenting on the software. |
| aszure | Oct 25, 2008 | 2.42 | 5 out of 5 |
eaves...you sir, are a buffoon. First off...I am sure you use win2k for some odd reason, maybe to impress people that you are so leet that you wont upgrade to win2k. If you want to stick with win2k...that's your choice. However, dont down rate a software because you are too much of a poofter to upgrade after 9 years. Its the same logic if you had a car that used regular gas, and you complained about how bad every gas station was because they didnt have your gas. You're the one being a douche, not the software manufacturer. mp3tag is excellent, and always continues on to do so. |
| spacemarine | Oct 25, 2008 | 2.42 | 5 out of 5 |
Yeah, pure tag-o-licious goodness and excellence indeed! |

I also wish that the new version would work on Win2k. I have XP on my laptop but not on my desktop. dracodos: I tried your suggestion (copying the installed version from XP to 2k) but it did not work for me. I get an error of "SHParseDisplayName could not be located in SHELL32.DLL" |
| dracodos | Jul 28, 2008 | 2.41b Beta | 4 out of 5 |
Powerful tagger tool. With features like autonumbering, cover art importing, tagging based of file name, renaming tool, plus the script support with which i used both the Amazon & Walmart cover art scripts, this is a solid and great tool. There are only 3 things i would wish it would support for the future: Chiptunes (SPC, NSF, PSF, etc); Lyrics (only sees the tag, can't view/edit); mp3gain support (only sees the tag, can't do anything with it) Thats the only 'Limited' functionality i see. Would also be nice to see a full Linux port instead of using WINE. EAVES: Mp3tag WILL work in 2000. The installer rejects 2K but if you can copy the install folder from an XP User, or a Linux user running WINE, to your 2K machine you're good to go. |
| Carlospr | Jul 9, 2008 | 2.41a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
It's a great, simple to use, always updated and reliable mp3 tagger. It even made me change from a shareware I was using some years ago. Note that even Microsoft has a time frame to support an operation system. You can't blame the author to stop supporting a 8 years old OS. In fact is the lack of the OS updates that turns most recent programs incompatible. |
| eaves | Jun 9, 2008 | 2.41a Beta | 1 out of 5 |
Somewhat limited in functionality. Also, from the website: "If you want to use Mp3tag with Windows 2000, you have to use the old version Mp3tag 2.39." |
| roj | Jun 7, 2008 | 2.41a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent as usual. To the author: The crash with Magnifer is likely to be directly related to how XP processes video, namely DirectDraw. The reason it doesn't happen under Vista is that Vista uses DirectX. Maybe this will make a difference to your bug hunt...? FIVE stars. |

This is such a well written program. Always been powerful, yet easy to use. Thanks to the author for keeping it steadily going and keeping it free. |

Excellent mp3 tagger. Easy to use and does it job. |
| Antichrist | Jun 6, 2008 | 2.41a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Ridiculously awesome, it's both simple and customizable. I'm very glad I tried it. Just started using the last.fm source from the forums, now I don't have to think about what to put for genre in the tags anymore, I used to just leave it blank. But blank isn't so useful when using a portable mp3 player. The discogs sources you can get in the forum seem good too. I wish I'd had all this functionality in a package this simple years ago. I wish it had some of my favorite features from MP3-Info Extension too, like adding mp3 icons for windows, but that may be overreaching a bit. |
| csb.milky | Jun 6, 2008 | 2.41a Beta | 5 out of 5 |

Last two reviewers are idiots!! Windows XP and Vista are not DRM crippled!! Idiots!! And Windows 2000 and Win9x have been dead for years, so get over it!! Even Microsoft no longer supports them.. |
| eaves | May 26, 2008 | 2.41 | 1 out of 5 |
Can't believe they dropped Windows 2000 support. What could they possibly be doing that requires Windows XP or later? Since Windows XP and later are DRM crippled, I suspect it ain't good. |

A truly fantastic utility that sees constant use by me. The Magnifier issue is NOT a MP3Tag issue but a Magnifier issue and in typical M$ fashion, is ignored despite attempts by the MP3Tag dev to get them to address the issue. ONE star for Micro$haft and FIVE stars for MP3Tag. |
| dracodos | Apr 8, 2008 | 2.40c Beta | 4 out of 5 |
As always a great TOOL, and THE tool to truly tag your music collection properly. I just wish the author still supported Win2K but thats only a minor issue these days and there is a way around the install for that anyhow. My ONLY gripe is that it doesn't support Chip tunes like PSF, SPC, etc. My understanding is that the author has no plans for that, shame... |
| i2k | Apr 4, 2008 | 2.40b Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Looks GREAT |
| roymccoy | Mar 28, 2008 | 2.40b Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Unfortunately most mp3's seems to be tagged randomly by children or an-alphabets. So if you want your mp3 files to easily get the right names and proper tags, this is a great program! Highly recommended! |
| roj | Mar 17, 2008 | 2.40a Beta | 4 out of 5 |
Fix the long-standing incompatibility with Windows Magnifier where the program will crash if you start it after Magnifier is running. FOUR stars. |
| darthbeads | Mar 17, 2008 | 2.40a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Truly a must-have, indispensable app that belongs on the HD of any computer with an MP3 collection. |

A very versatile program for creating/editing meta data and renaming files. |

I've long known it was the best audio file tagger for Windows, but for the last few months, I've been running it in Linux via WINE. It's the best there too, far outstripping EasyTag. It remains lightweight and fast, while still managing to pack all the features I need and then some. |
| Brian49 | Feb 26, 2008 | 2.40 | 5 out of 5 |
Superb software. |

"After installation, exe file is indicated as 2.38" Er, no it isn't, it's exactly what it says it is - 2.39m - it says it clearly at the top. This is a 5 star product take no notice of fools ratings. |

I've tried many tagging programs, but I keep coming back to this one. It's powerful and quite easy to use. Tag&Rename is (was?) another good one, but this one is free and updated often. |

| AlbinoAsian | Nov 2, 2007 | 2.39d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Its the best free tagger I've used, in fact its better than any ones that you'd have to pay for. Its simply fantastic has some smart features, the only thing I've found a little messy is when trying to apply tags via the cd search (apart from using cddb). If it picks your album in CDDB I haven't had one problem |
| roj | Oct 31, 2007 | 2.39d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
If this app is started when Windows Magnifier (it's in Accessibility Options)is running and it wants to display itself in an area that Magnifier is using for its display, it promptly crashes. Every time. This needs to be fixed. FOUR stars for excellence (five minus one for the scenario above) |
| roj | Oct 8, 2007 | 2.39c Beta | 4 out of 5 |
This program has one really annoying bug. If one starts Windows Magnifier (under Accessories / Accessibility options) and then starts this program, and the program normally occupies a place on screen that Magnifier takes over, it will GPF every time. Consistently. Please fix this. FOUR stars that will immediately change back to FIVE when this bug is fixed. In all other respects, this program is excellent. |

@kashin- I'd suggest NOT loading 1000s of selections. What's the point? Do an album at a time. Works perfectly for me, including getting tag data from AMG. |
| kashin | Aug 7, 2007 | 2.39 | 3 out of 5 |
It works and the price is right, but it gets sluggish if you load thousands of songs into it. The RAM usage also goes through the roof. It uses ~80MB of memory with 9,500 songs loaded. Surely the tags don't take up a fraction of this much space. Another problem is that the program rescans every file when I load it. It should be able to cache the tag information and rescan only changed files since last restart. When I pull tags from FreeDB or Amazon, it's very slow to add the tags to the files. An album with 20 tracks can take up to 30 seconds or more to tag. This can get very annoying when you're trying to get tags for many albums. Still, I use this program because I haven't found anything better yet. I'm open for suggestions though. |

The best freeware digital audio tagging application with a few cards more in its sleeve. Mp3tag excels at really fast tagging, continued development and care from the author, support for all digital audio formats and an easy and practical interface. i use it to get album art and clean mp3 files with extra tag specs, conversion to 2.3 unicode from 2.4,all with a simple "erase tags,undo" command. It works reliably with a very big collection of files. Very highly recommended. |

this program just has it all.. almost.. the ONE thing I've wanted for ages was a bit more friendly browser.. .. like a directory browser on the side that I could use to jump up and down the dirtree and get to new .. dirs..(i hate folders!)..... I have never managed to find it in this program so it either has it and im a retard.. or it doesnt.. but for all the rest.. a solid 4 |

I was misled to believe that MediaMonkey did tagging better than Mp3Tag. Well, I was back to Mp3Tag in no time and will stick to it for a while. A well deserved 5 for a job well done. |

Dont rate a software low because you prefer something else. I have used this program for quite a long time, and find it to be fantastic. I have since moved on to a few different programs which handle the album art better, and offer better track lookup. But if you want something good, and free...this is worth a dowload. Anamoly-get a life. |

I just can't give this less than 5. However a better Lyrics support would be great (e.g. easily - I said easily - import from a text file into tag). |
| sky4love | Feb 19, 2007 | 2.37f Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I used TagScanner 5 & foobar2K for tagging audio files. Now mp3tag replaces Tagscanner as my favorite tool except treating files included russian tag. Various customization is another merit of this. I'm happy for meeting mp3tag. |
| JEdwardP | Feb 16, 2007 | 2.37e Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I've written before, and doubtless will again, that this is simply the best program of its type. It's smaller and has a cleaner interface than either of the two alternatives mentioned in recent reviews here. Not to intentionally tear-down other people's choices, to which they certainly have their rights, but one really can't compare this program to Mp3/Tag Studio, because: Mp3/Tag Studio isn't just a tagger, it includes cutting and joining functions of the kind done so well for free by MP3DirectCut. Mp3/Tag Studio is only designed to work with MP3 files and only with ID3 tags. If, like me, you have other many other file types (Ogg, Musepack, AAC/MP4, or ANY lossless formats), then you'll probably want a tagger that handles them all, which Mp3tag does and Mp3/Tag Studio does not. As a final consideration, remember that Mp3tag is freeware. Mp3/Tag Studio is either adware or $19 shareware, depending upon which download you choose. All these points converge to make Mp3tag the clear winner. To any who've never used it, please do try it, odds are your search for a tagger will then be at a very happy end. |

Excellent utility. Indispensable to maintain a healthy musci library. "NEW: removing files from the file view without deleting them": I'm glad this is finally implemented. |

Simply the best program of its kind. ID3-TagIt isn't really even the same sort of program, since it is designed to work ONLY with ID3 tags. For those of us who have files in our collections that can/must use other tag formats (Vorbis, AAC, MusePack, Speex, and several lossless formats, for example), Mp3 tag can deal with All these AND ID3, up to and including v. 2.4 unicode. |

This software program is great! It has saved me a lot of time, converting & editing tag information. It's a wonderful program, and it's free. I have been using it for over almost two years. |
| lordgibbness | Oct 10, 2006 | 2.36h Beta | 5 out of 5 |
meteecee, I used to use ID3Tag-it but mp3tag is the best tool of it's kind. It's very extensible and intuative compared to most others (and that inclused tag&rename and godfather too!). Very useful feature I have been using it for lately was to remove all unwanted fields from all my music files at once, and also removing unwanted tag types (lyrics3, ape, etc.) so I am just left with what I actually use. |
| cricri_pingouin | Oct 10, 2006 | 2.36h Beta | 5 out of 5 |
is like notepad compnred (sic) to excel You mean that they are doing totally different things and hence should not be compared? Either way, the alternative proposed uses .Net, so I'm definitely sticking to Mp3Tag which does a great job. |
| benZin | Sep 30, 2006 | 2.36f Beta | 5 out of 5 |
The best tagger. @anomoly, interface *rofl* we don't care with an app' like Mp3tag. |
| meteecee | Sep 25, 2006 | 2.36f Beta | 2 out of 5 |
looks cute but compared to http://www.id3-tagit.de/english/index.htm is like notepad compnred to excel .. |
| ConceptJunkie | Jul 8, 2006 | 2.36d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
My only complaint about MP3Tag was that it was too slow to read and modify OGG files (I don't know about MP3's), but that seems to have been fixed in recent releases. This app makes it really easy to modify tags one at a time or in groups. One of the most useful apps I have. |
| knuckles | Jul 8, 2006 | 2.36d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Great Tagger. Used to use TagScanner but I found the interface and setup of Mp3Tag to be much more efficient. A tool should have functionallity with an interface that compliments that. Though I really wonder what Anomonly is looking for in a tagging program. Something that works or something catches his eye so he can't realize how much his current program sucks. Great Program!!! |
| Deedstyger | Jul 8, 2006 | 2.36d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
definite tool for audio tagging. i dont understand why ppl write 100 alternatives where we have the true number ones. |
| anomoly | Jul 7, 2006 | 2.36d Beta | 3 out of 5 |
uhh. the interface? |
| JEdwardP | Jul 7, 2006 | 2.36d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I'm not sure what impact the impending demise of FreeDb will have on future versions, but for now, its absolute excellence continues. I'm hard pressed to think of a good reason why anyone who has actually used this would prefer another tagger. |
| Darken | Jul 4, 2006 | 2.36c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent tool. Up to date continually... Great! |
| pyridox | Jun 12, 2006 | 2.36c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
This is the best ID3 tag editor I have used. I like the tag to ID3 & ID3 to Tag function. |
| spiffyjeff | Jun 11, 2006 | 2.36c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Awesome program, I've been using it on windows for a few years. Today I installed it on Linux under WINE, tested editing a field of song, and it worked. I haven't the majority of the functions yet, but it looks promising so far. |

I don't see what's so great about this myself. Tagscanner, on the other hand absolutely rocks & is free too. |

Absolutelly a Briliant piece of software. |

Best tagging app IMO. I use to use Dr Tag a few years back and it was just like Mp3tag, but it has gone the way of vaporware it seems. It also cost money. Mp3tag is better anyway. |
| 1uk3 | Mar 19, 2006 | 2.35l Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent tool that takes almost all of the pain out of renaming and editing tags. Pretty much perfect. |
| Ganymed | Mar 11, 2006 | 2.35k Beta | 5 out of 5 |
@Ribibi: This is actually a bug in iTunes, because it has problems reading ID3v2.4 tags encoded as UTF-8. Simply enable writing of ISO-8859-1 tags at 'Options > Tag > Mpeg' to circumvent this problem. |
| Ribibi | Mar 11, 2006 | 2.35k Beta | 3 out of 5 |
It's a great program, BUT since a few beta versions, a bad character is added at end of any fields (year, title, author, album...) Not useful... I saw this problem on iTunes |
| kanenas | Mar 11, 2006 | 2.35k Beta | 5 out of 5 |
mp3tag is the best especially for the cddb options that it has and the way that edits idtags on every known music format |
| citrus | Mar 8, 2006 | 2.35i | 4 out of 5 |
sorry i shouldn't have ratted it low.. the program does what it says it gets a four just cuz i think there are a few features it needs |
| mojomojo | Mar 7, 2006 | 2.35h | 5 out of 5 |
Has saved me much time. Can write Tag to filename or vise versa. Has a good CDDB lookup interface. Lite and easy to use. |

I still use Tagscanner but mp3tag is good anyway. |
| dreylos | Jan 21, 2006 | 2.35a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I highly recommend this program for any tag or file renaming. It's even far better than iTunes! It's faster, has track number wizard & makes a messy collection of thousands of files reconfigured in at least half the time you would spend with the best 2nd choice MP3tag soft/freeware. |
| Brian49 | Jan 8, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
The devoted tagger's best friend. By the way, I've found it's also excellent for creating and editing playlists. |
| Metshrine | Jan 8, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
After using this program for only a few minutes, I knew it was the best in its class. I've tried many others, but very few make it as easy or simplistic to edit a whole album's mp3 tags. The freedb search is great, although they could add a back button to the confirmation dialog in case the result you selected didnt match your tastes. Also, add a freedb listing to the right click menu so you can right click your list of files and choose freedb. Other than that, top notch. Good job! |
| roj | Jan 7, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
The best there is. Nothing else tops this. Support is excellent and this app defies the standard laws of software dev by continuing to expand with useful features without adding bloat. FIVE stars for excellence. |

| Ganymed | Jan 7, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
@benZin: Just enable 'Always write ISO-8859-1 tags instead of UTF-16' at 'Options > Tags > Mpeg'. Seems that your portable doesn't support ID3v2 tags written in Unicode. See http://mp3tag.de/en/help/start_whatsnew.html#v233 for details. |
| SteveJohnSteele | Jan 7, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
:-) but the 2.34a, 2.34b, 2.34c ... version numbering was confusing especially since all the downloads simply said 2.34 - so couldnt tell the difference 2.35.1, 2.35.2, 2.35.3 next time please |
| benZin | Jan 7, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent, but my walkman Sony CD MP3 don't read the tag of the version 2.35. I use the 2.30 :/ But it's always excellent. |
| twosheds | Jan 7, 2006 | 2.35 | 5 out of 5 |
Top class free software - really superb work. |
| EarlyMorningHours | Dec 31, 2005 | 2.34h | 4 out of 5 |
I really wish I could give this 4.5, but I don't think it deserves 5. I've been using this utility for over a year now. It's a great little program and above all it's free, but I would think after how long it's been around, some of the more obvious bugs would have long ago been resolved. It seems as though the rapid fire release schedule this has been on lately reintroduces bugs sometimes. When I read the change log I just can't believe some of the showstoppers that were fixed in relation to how long the program has been available. But as I stated earlier, it is a fantastic program and I'm incredibly greatful that the author does have the desire to further develop it. |
| ArabianNight | Dec 27, 2005 | 2.34f Beta | 5 out of 5 |

| JEdwardP | Dec 17, 2005 | 2.34e | 5 out of 5 |
It's hardly fair to blame FreeDb server problems on an application that just uses FreeDb. This is the best tagging app. available. The two most frequent complaints against it, at least among those here, seem to've been lack of unicode support and lack of Amazon support for gathering tag info. Both those things have now been added, so I hope it'll be happily used by even more people. As I've said before, If you actually want your tagger to also serve as an organizer, encoder, and converter, then yes, you should try The Godfather. But, if you, like me, want your tagger to just be a great tagger, I doubt you'll find one better than this. |
| darkpepe | Dec 17, 2005 | 2.34e | 5 out of 5 |
Getting better and better! Since it has amazon support you don't need anything else. Awesome! |
| Ganymed | Dec 17, 2005 | 2.34e | 5 out of 5 |
freedb is working fine as long as a working freedb server is selected at 'Options > freedb > Server'. As freedb.org has problems with their main rotation server freedb.freedb.org at the moment, I suggest to switch to one of the regional mirrors listed at http://www.freedb.org/mo...viewarticle&artid=9 |
| yagood | Dec 17, 2005 | 2.34e | 2 out of 5 |
Just use The Godfather. |
| photonboy | Dec 17, 2005 | 2.34e | 4 out of 5 |
It seems to be working for others so I'll give it a good score. However, every time I try to use Freedb I get "server failed to return a valide response code." MP3tageditor v2.04 won't access Freedb anymore as well and it was great. What am I doing wrong? |
| Jose | Dec 12, 2005 | 2.34d | 4 out of 5 |
Very good freeware. Unfortunately sometimes poor freedb results. |
| sigloiv | Dec 12, 2005 | 2.34d | 5 out of 5 |
All around awesome program. The best of its kind. To the review below this one (about the ?'s), it's not Mp3tag's fault that you can't have ?'s in your filenames: it's Windows'. Windows doesn't allow you to have ?'s in any file no matter what (something about the NTFS file system, I believe). |
| tremens | Dec 11, 2005 | 2.34d | 5 out of 5 |
The only problem I ever have with this thing, is it gets rid of ? on the end of files. |
| bouchonx | Dec 10, 2005 | 2.34d | 4 out of 5 |
Poor Ozieo... Mp3 tag studio is a very poor shareware with an ugly banner. There is no freedb autoag... Are you blind or stupid or simply the outhor of mp3 tag studio??? Mp3tag is one the best. Godfather is also very good... But the freedb results are strangely better with the shareware tag'n rename. Anyone can explain why there is this difference ? |
| dreamz | Dec 8, 2005 | 2.34c | 5 out of 5 |
Simply the best. And the support is impressive. Five stars and thumbs up! |

An excellent tagging tool, only The Godfather is in competition. Umm, Ozieo, why bother sport? I'll give Ozieo v0.01 alpha a 1 for incompleteness and lack of intelligent features. |
| rip_pit | Dec 5, 2005 | 2.34c | 5 out of 5 |
to Ozieo: be aware that Mp3tag is freeware and MP3 Tag Studio isn't. I'm trying at Mp3tag since few days and it does his job really well. Thx to Mp3tag dev team. |
| nerrad | Dec 4, 2005 | 2.34b | 5 out of 5 |
The best thing since sliced bread. BTW, it actually does support embedded cover art. Simply select an MP3 file, right-click it, and select "Tags". |
| Polychronopolis | Nov 29, 2005 | 2.34a | 5 out of 5 |
For the love of God, I wish this had support for embedded cover art!!!! Otherwise I am not interested. However, it does what it says so I cannot give it lower than a 5 |
| pdadad | Nov 29, 2005 | 2.34a | 5 out of 5 |
I've used this app for several months and highly recommend it. It has been continuously improved. It uses your default player when you want to hear a file. Open your player then double click the file in Mp3tag. Just play the next file then edit the tag and file name of the one you just listened to. |
| dhry | Nov 29, 2005 | 2.34a | 3 out of 5 |
Alternately, get foobar2000. Tags every format known to man AND it plays your music too! *8-) |
| GimieGimieGimie | Nov 28, 2005 | 2.34a | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent program, everything i need in a simple but effective interface. |
| darkpepe | Nov 27, 2005 | 2.34 | 5 out of 5 |
YES! Amazon support was what we all were waiting for, and actually IT WORKS! Did I mention it's free? |
| mychele | Nov 27, 2005 | 2.34 | 5 out of 5 |
I love this program. I think that Mp3tag is the best, The GodFather has much options but it has a more chaotic interface. |
| lordnaastik | Nov 27, 2005 | 2.34 | 4 out of 5 |
nice program but not nearly as good as the godfather |
| nerrad | Nov 27, 2005 | 2.34 | 5 out of 5 |
I've tried many MP3 tag applications over the years, and each one had its quirks. Not MP3Tag, it's simple, uncluttered, and perfect in every way. Highly recommended! |
| maurotexp | Nov 26, 2005 | 2.34 | 5 out of 5 |
Excelente. muy facil de usar. interfaz sencilla, rapido, eficiente. deja los mp3 ordenados tanto si editas los tags como si lo usas para renombrar. el mejor de los programas q hacen esta tarea. y todavia gratuito! |
| JEdwardP | Nov 2, 2005 | 2.33d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
The Godfather is a nice application for those who want/need their audio file tagger to also serve as an organizer/catalog, and an encoder/decoder/ transcoder. For those who DON'T want their tagger doing all that, like me, Mp3tag is a much better choice. It also supports WMA for those who use it; I never will, but the support is there, and unicode, which is very important given the advent of the unicode-only version of foobar2000. |
| pdadad | Nov 2, 2005 | 2.33d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I've been using this app for a few months now with wma, mp3 and ogg files. The interface is easy to understand and use. I have noticed no bugs at all. According their site, The Godfather does not support for WMA files. |
| Gerwin | Nov 2, 2005 | 2.33d Beta | 3 out of 5 |
The fact that a program does not support wma is a bonus. |
| pyridox | Oct 31, 2005 | 2.33c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
This is one of the best tag editors I have tried. It's a free program, and has a lot of feratures. I have been using it since it's early conception. It makes lite work out of renaming/renumbering a group of audio files. I love the tag>filename & filename>tag function! The author keeps the prgram updated, and has a forum wherer you can post any bugs or new ideas. |
| deadmonkey | Oct 30, 2005 | 2.33c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Hands down the best application of its type. I have been using Mp3tag for a while now and it has never let me down. Excellent product. |
| HotBlack77 | Oct 24, 2005 | 2.33b | 5 out of 5 |
This version (2.33b) now runs great on Windows x64. Even the shell integration works. This tool just gets better and better. |
| benZin | Oct 24, 2005 | 2.33b | 5 out of 5 |
Awesome like it s simply. Le must! |
| HotBlack77 | Oct 20, 2005 | 2.33a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
A great (and amazingly) free app. Has anybody got it running on win x64? Seems to simply be an installer problem. |
| googun | Oct 18, 2005 | 2.33a Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Florian has done a superb job with this utility. As with many such things, the English language bits are a little bit weak here and there, but I could not possibly complain about it. Producing multiple language interfaces and help is not as easy as it might look. To do it for a FREE piece of software is highly commendable. The software itself is stable and works well, is easy to use, and does what it claims to. Nice work. |

| drumcat | Oct 10, 2005 | 2.32u Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I'd have to agree. This is an excellent free tool. If this was a $20 program, it's still 4 *s. Some language cleanup and interface improvements would add polish, but as a utility, this thing whomps! Never change tags individually again - there's no reason to! Thanks! |
| benZin | Oct 4, 2005 | 2.32t Beta | 5 out of 5 |
The best tag editor! Free, easy, simply and fast. |
| blackspawn | Sep 30, 2005 | 2.32s Beta | 5 out of 5 |
You'll never want another file tagger/renamer. It's free, easy to use, and very powerfull. And did I say it's FREE? |
| sQin | Sep 3, 2005 | 2.32s Beta | 5 out of 5 |
supports mp3 apev2. Its great combination with foobar2000 |
| lab-techie | Sep 2, 2005 | 2.32s Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Works excellent. I especially love the tag to filename/filename to tag, and auto-numbering features. Saves me a lot of time. And it's a free program too, with no adware or spyware. I have been using this for a long time now, since v2.0 I think. |
| mansa | Aug 25, 2005 | 2.32q Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Simple complete free and works great so what's you're waiting for than |
| bsr500 | Aug 21, 2005 | 2.32p Beta | 5 out of 5 |
This goes into the Top 5 best freeware that I have installed on my computer. Very convenient features such as "Tag to filename" and "filename to tag" converter which save me A LOT of time. Auto numbering wizard saves tones of time on those mp3's without track numbers already on the tag or filename. And on top of all of that, it can create the playlist for you. What more can I say, it is excellent and does what it is meant to do, and does it well. |
| uberfly | Aug 21, 2005 | 2.32p Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Very easy to use and always works great. Didn't have to dig through documentation to understand it. Thanks for making it free. |

the best and easiest tagger i've tried |
| ckjnigel | Jul 11, 2005 | 2.32 | 5 out of 5 |
A remarkable program in that it is so very obvious how it works. Unfortunately, tag editing still is tedious, but this program meeds only a tenth of a dozy brain to do great work. BTW, this is one of the few that works with the AAC+ codec. |
| cricri_pingouin | Jul 6, 2005 | 2.31b | 5 out of 5 |
Because we westerners can write documents solely using 8 bits encoding (e.g. ISO-8859) does not mean that every one in the world can do so. In fact, Unicode has been created to match worldwide (i.e. multi-cultural) requirements. Thus, the fact that the guy below is disappointed because Unicode is not supported (e.g. Chinese) is indeed a completely valid reason to take points out the rating. Moreover, a 3 is an average rating. If I was in his/her shoes, since the program would fail on all counts, I'd have given it less. Since it does meet my expectations though, I do rate it a 5 personally. |
| ArabianNight | Jun 7, 2005 | 2.31 | 5 out of 5 |
The best mp3 tag editor out their. wtf doesnt support chinese characters? ...... thats a reason to not rate it good????? y dont u dl a chinese program if ur so smart? |
| tohjg | May 27, 2005 | 2.31 | 3 out of 5 |
love all the features but doesn support chinese character. |

| tsehov | Apr 1, 2005 | 2.29e Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent program. I had several (over 200) mp3 -files with wrong tags but with this program it was a breeze to correct them all. Stable, effective, understandable UI and furthermore free - what more could be expected. |
| da3x | Mar 22, 2005 | 2.29c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I've just cleaned up my whole MP3 collection for my new iPod and MP3Tag helped my alot! Features like filename-2-tags, tags-2-filename and FreeDB support make it the perfect tool for every MP3 user. Fantastic job! |
| csb.milky | Mar 16, 2005 | 2.29c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
All you need for fast-but-perfect tagging :) Great tool! |
| SCoooBY | Mar 11, 2005 | 2.29b | 5 out of 5 |
Just to make my last post a bit clearer... When I responded to Kyle_Katarn, he had given Mp3tag a 2 rating and his post didn't include: "I'm the developper of K-MP3. I'm not posting here to promote my app. I'm just doing it to correct the erroneous post that have been made be someone else. that's why i give a 5 to this app anyway ..." I don't know how he was able to edit his post to change the score and add the above statement... Is there a way to actually do this? |

Mp3tag has support for AMG, artistdirect.com, discogs.com and musicbrainz.org via the Web Source Framework and it's easy to build a custom web source for amazon.com. Just suggest this on the forums and someone will do that. There is also an external tool called Amazon Cover Downloader which can also be found at the forums. |

Though it’s free it’s not for me, as it doesn’t import information from Amazon. That’s why I prefer mp3Tag (of ManiacTools), that has more convenient interface and besides, what is also very important, it can automatically search for lyrics and album covers. http://www.maniactools.c..._tags_from_amazon.shtml http://www.maniactools.c...tag/lyrics_search.shtml http://www.maniactools.c...ft/mp3tag/picture.shtml |

Most people at FileForum find this rather distasteful. It's definitely not a good way to win converts... |

Unlike what has been said, K-MP3 is FREE and has much more possibilities than this app. Only K-MP3 "Expert" costs 14.99E, and has *even more* features and is not comparable with a simple tag editor. I'm the developper of K-MP3. I'm not posting here to promote my app. I'm just doing it to correct the erroneous post that have been made be someone else. that's why i give a 5 to this app anyway ... |

I always liked this utility. It packs in a lot of features and it's free :-) Someone earlier said it's not as good as K-MP3. Well, K-MP3 is 14.99 Euro to buy and MP3TAG is free. While K-MP3 may be the better product, you have to ask whether it is 14.99 better. |

This is a great program. I was having a problem with it, but I just realized that was due to my own stupidity. |
| heybirder | Feb 14, 2005 | 2.28c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I've been using this program for months and have stopped using all other mp3 tag programs. This program can do a number of powerful tag tasks through a simple, intuitive interface. Mass tag changes, file renames, lots more. Even lets you use a local freedb file on your computer. |
| penguinfanitic | Feb 14, 2005 | 2.28c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Love the progam. The Web Data Base works great and makes for quick file editing. |
| ghammer | Feb 14, 2005 | 2.28c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
The only tool I like better is The Godfather. I've found both these free tools do a MUCH better job than paid apps. And yeah, as a matter of fact, I have tried them all! Strange though. Have you ever noticed that this and MP3 Tag Clinic are always updated on the same day? |
| toszcze | Feb 14, 2005 | 2.28c Beta | 2 out of 5 |
I don't like this program. I use K-MP3, which is perfect for tagging and renaming MP3s. I expected the same functionality of Mp3Tag, but I found it's very hard to use. I know, that author did a lot of good work, but sometimes it's not all... |
| madk0w | Feb 8, 2005 | 2.28b Beta | 5 out of 5 |
sweet stuff :) |
| Overdose | Feb 8, 2005 | 2.28b Beta | 5 out of 5 |
it' s nearly perfect! 5 of 5 |

Just got done organizing my music and this makes proper tagging really fast, It does alittle bit more than just tag, if you rename files you have to remake the playlist, and this program will make playlists for you. And if your mp3's are in a proper name format then the filename > tag feature is really good. Although I like to do each mp3 manually myself, to ensure title and track# is right. If you want to give your mp3's proper tags this program is the best and fastest way to do so. |
| pyridox | Feb 7, 2005 | 2.28b Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I have been using this program for about a year now. It's the best one I've used for taging mp3's, ogg's, etc. The Tag to File name & file name to tag function is extremely helpful. And like the person below said, the author and program forum is great. I haven't even seen any shareware programs that work this well. I highly recomend it. Thanks to the program author! |
| brotherS | Jan 31, 2005 | 2.28 | 5 out of 5 |
Great program... and a helpful forum as well! |
| MMPD | Jan 30, 2005 | 2.28 | 5 out of 5 |
Excellent program, it has saved me many many hours of tagging! |
| christoofar | Jan 25, 2005 | 2.27g Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Best of the freeware taggers out there. Author keeps improving it too. Just wish that it would add the "0" for tracks 1-9, by default, instead of having to set a script up to do it. Other that that this thing rocks! |
| l_p_4_7 | Jan 23, 2005 | 2.27f Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Edits tags for pretty much any media file you can think of. Best tag editor IMO. |
| bsr500 | Jan 20, 2005 | 2.27e Beta | 5 out of 5 |
was just looking for a program to make a playlist that would order by name in numerical order of the filenames.. This does it automatically, just load the directory of the files, file > playlist(all) and thats it. Very simple to use, and does a whole lot more than what I needed it for, best mp3 "organizer", and works great for what it is made to do to, mp3-tags :) |
| plumlipstick | Jan 19, 2005 | 2.27e Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I am very happy with this program. It is easy to use, flexible, and can be automated without spending a lot of time. I am blind, and every feature in this program has keyboard support. The use of standard Windows dialog controls and list views makes this a very accessible program for anyone who uses assistive technology. Nice work! :D |
| fiftycal | Jan 17, 2005 | 2.27e Beta | 3 out of 5 |
Cionno I'm sorry that my personal opinion of a program doesn't match your high standards. Before I rendered my feelings on ANYTHING I'll be sure to contact you first and see what you think so I don't make a mistake. PS I'm aware of the freedb features, I don't care for them. I find the Amazon album search in Tag&Rename infinitely more useful. |
| pyridox | Jan 17, 2005 | 2.27e Beta | 5 out of 5 |
This is the best tool that I have used for editing .ogg & .mp3 tags. Thanks to the author, for continued developement on this. |
| Cionno | Jan 10, 2005 | 2.27d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
to fiftycal : maybe you dont seem having seen the button marked with "query cddb database"... everything is automatic, even if you dont know the cd name and track titles, it gives you the opportunity to search by mp3 lenghts and choose one from a list of possibilities... if this is not streamlined... please do not post opinions if you have checked out the program for less than 5 secs... |
| spiffyjeff | Dec 29, 2004 | 2.27c Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Awesome tool for tagging and renaming .ogg and .mp3 files. Keep up the great work! |
| Cionno | Dec 13, 2004 | 2.27a | 5 out of 5 |
Nothing to say ... Great tool... |
| da3x | Dec 11, 2004 | 2.27a | 5 out of 5 |
Just tried it out and prefer it over all over tools I've used so far. It GUI is clean and fast and it does the job very quick if you have spend the first minutes trying to figure things out. And why the hell does one need Amazon? - FreeDB does it all! |
| fiftycal | Dec 11, 2004 | 2.27a | 3 out of 5 |
Isn't that the point of a rating system? To rate software to your preferences? And isn't "fast and streamlined" your personal preference? I'm not asking for a pile of bloat, I just really like the convenience of getting all the album info from Amazon and having all the tags filled out automatically. If you think typing them out manually is "fast and streamlined" then more power to you. Until this feature is added, my rating stands. |
| brotherS | Dec 6, 2004 | 2.27 | 5 out of 5 |
I uses it since ages, bugs were fixed and features added, I don't miss anything! |
| roj | Dec 5, 2004 | 2.27 | 5 out of 5 |
Man, I can't get over the silliness of some of these reviews. Amazon Support? Beefs with the fact that it uses an installer? People, give your heads a shake! This is a MP3 and file *tagger*. You want a multimedia library application? Use Winamp, MusicMatch, the iTunes crap or some other example of bloat. Pound for pound, this applications kicks serious butt in terms of functionality against all comers. It's bug free too which is more than the vast majority of the others (especially the bloatware junk) can claim. If you don't like streamlined, tightly written apps that do their job superlatively, that's your wont (and loss) but don't dis an app that does because of your own "preferences". |
| fiftycal | Nov 30, 2004 | 2.26f Beta | 3 out of 5 |
Why do all the positive reviews sound like tag-lines from a website? Anyway, I like this program but until it adds Amazon support (like Tag&Rename) I won't be using it. Very solid but lacking some important features. |
| TomRC | Nov 30, 2004 | 2.26f Beta | 5 out of 5 |
@rrtn: The only thing thats lame is your poor review. Mp3Tag is certainly more comfortable and powerfull than the most small standalone apps. Ok, you can write texts with the notepad but if want more you will use a office suite ( For example OOo ;). And Mp3Tag is not bloated its nearly almighty in its job. The strong script functions for example are saving my live over and over again. Also this app eats every Format without any problems. So this is a must have for audio file tagging. |
| darkpepe | Nov 16, 2004 | 2.26a | 4 out of 5 |
Sweet! But I still miss the cover download feature as TGF has. |
| roj | Nov 1, 2004 | 2.26 | 5 out of 5 |
With every release, more inherently *useful* features get added without glitz and bloat. I won't use anything else. |
| Arutha | Oct 31, 2004 | 2.25o Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I found MP3tag to be a very easy and fast solution for tagging my music. It's a simple,stable, no-nonsense tagger that does what it sais. I do agree that MP3tag is not suited for people who want very detailed tags (cover,producer,...) but for basic tagging it's just the best and it's free! *Highly recommended* |
| RaveN-FH- | Oct 1, 2004 | 2.25g Beta | 4 out of 5 |
very good. only thing it's missing is the ability to set encoder flags (copyrighted, original, and emphasis). however it looks like it won't ever be added: http://www.anytag.de/for...index.php?showtopic=763 . unfortunate because mp3 tag studio can do it fast and easily. i'm torn between the two now. |
| ComradeF | Sep 24, 2004 | 2.25d Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I've been tagging entire albums in record time with this app. The interface is intuitive, the features are perfect, and the coding is very smart (the way it can parse filenames for tag items). Keep up the excellent work! |
| roj | Sep 19, 2004 | 2.25 | 5 out of 5 |
Thou SHALT NOT use taggers built into players or other shareware code that is overpriced and underpowered. Thou SHALT use this. The configurability of the tagging masks alone is worth the download. |
| BrianSmith | Sep 15, 2004 | 2.24m Beta | 5 out of 5 |
Amazing piece of software that allowed me to update all the file names based on the artist and song name and performed it in a few seconds. Does everything I need to manage my ever growing list of music and allows me to update file names or id tags very quickly if I decide to change my naming format. Small, clean and easy to use interface. |
| blackcherry | Sep 13, 2004 | 2.24m Beta | 5 out of 5 |
a very handly program to have. 5 stars!!! although the only reason you would really need this is if you wanted to fix up your illegally donwloaded music files. |
| thoffmeyer | Sep 13, 2004 | 2.24m Beta | 5 out of 5 |
I love this little nifty program, espically if you have alot of albums and (i cant spell :() |
| madk0w | Sep 10, 2004 | 2.24f | 5 out of 5 |
OMG! What a relief program such as these exist! Before i used winamp to rename my albums, can you imagine? This program is so easy to use and in under 1min. you have tagged & renamed an album the way you want it! A real relief! Great work guys! |
| JEdwardP | Sep 3, 2004 | 2.24b | 5 out of 5 |
It's small, fast, multi-format, actively developed, and free. Only the lack of ability to import data from All Music Guide keeps it from perfection. |
| darkpepe | Sep 2, 2004 | 2.24b | 5 out of 5 |
Love this app! Used Tag & Rename till I found this one. Only feature I miss is automatic cover download. |
| RMerlin | Jul 4, 2004 | 2.22 | 4 out of 5 |
It offers more features and costs less (it's free) than all the commercial/shareware alternatives out there. Was a real life saver when I bought my Creative Nomad, allowed me to quickly and easily clean up my tags before transfering them to the portable player. However has a few minor quirks, like the mouse pointer freezing while it's writing the edited tags to some files. First time I see a program exhibiting that behaviour under WinXP... |
| cricri_pingouin | May 26, 2004 | 2.21g Beta | 4 out of 5 |
Ozieo: thank you for the advertisement for this shareware software you are talking about. I had a look and was thoroughly unimpressed (apart from the price tag maybe, as well as the kick a** huge banner at the bottom wasting screen space). I was wondering why you were not justifying your opinion and your drastic Mp3Tag underating with valid points, and discovered why: there aren't any. I have to say that I tried The Godfather also, and it's good too, and free :) However, I had the impression it's trying to do too much things apart from tagging, and that made it difficult for me to make use of it in an efficient way. I myself use Tag&Rename because it does a lot and the interface is somewhat effective. The other main reason I use Tag&Rename is the possibility to import tags form www.allmusic.com. I'll rate Tag&Rename with 4 * since it's shareware. For some reason, I'm more comfortable with AMG than with freedb, probably because I get more data, hence allwoing me to make sure I'm definitely getting the right data. That might sound dumb, but that the way my brain works :S That said, as soon as Mp3Tag allows to import tags from www.allmusic.com, then it will get a definite 5 and replace Tag&Rename on my system :) I can't wait since Tag&Rename is shareware, and you get free updates for the main revision number only. |

I used to use MP3 Tag Studio. It is deifnitely not without merit - in fact it is an excellent program. However, why should I pay for something when I can get the same functionality for free? "Mr. 10 million times better" or whatever he said needs to grow up - he simply cannot substantiate his claim. |
| Niliaend | May 16, 2004 | 2.12a | 5 out of 5 |
The best free mp3, ogg, aac, ... manager and renamer! It has a very simple interface, with its single window mode. The rename window allows you to rename all tags by double clicking on it, to display a lot of informations about the files. It scans folders fast, has an addon launcher for faster startup. It's translated in many languages, has shell integration, freedb support. It's really an excellent program. |

Very happy with this program BUT where is the "enable leading zeros in track numbers" option? It USED to be there but now is gone... |
| JEdwardP | Jan 10, 2004 | 2.16f | 5 out of 5 |
I'd been using MP3BookHelper for quite a while, but I switched to this because the 2.16 final version supports Speex files, which I use extensively for audiobooks, as well as most popular music file types. That and the fact it's freeware and only 1.35 MB installed make it my new favorite tagger. |
| DigiSyn | Jan 4, 2004 | 2.16f | 5 out of 5 |
This app crushs UltraTagger, it hasn't done me wrong once yet, UltraTagger messed up several albums on me before I set out to find an alternative. Thanks for all the great work, keep it up!! |
| ilikedirtthe2nddd | Dec 11, 2003 | 2.16 | 5 out of 5 |
very good, but i still prefer case's tag (ca5e.tk) with one of the available frontends or foobar2000. |
| Joco | Dec 8, 2003 | 2.16 RC4 | 5 out of 5 |
This program is simply fantastic. And even more because it is freeware. |
| PWT999 | Nov 27, 2003 | 2.15k | 5 out of 5 |
It does everything I want, stable even when tagging 1000s of files, brilliant program. |
| roj | Oct 27, 2003 | 2.15 | 5 out of 5 |
Absolutely terrific program - superior to MPTagger which was my former mainstay (I'm sorry but no development and bug fixes in over a year means an automatic "bye bye" as far as I'm concerned). I have only one beef: why is the context help not in English yet? |
| Stoerpser | Oct 24, 2003 | 2.14l | 5 out of 5 |
I've observed this program for a while because I daily work with Mp3ext to editing Tags. Now I've tried out Mp3Tag and I believe I will change my preference to this program. - I love the interface to my local cddb, - I believe, it's very stable - through its overview I can very easily manage all my MP3's in one step. And the costs .... Thanks to the author |
| roj | Sep 16, 2003 | 2.14c | 5 out of 5 |
I really like this program - but I **NEED** the Help Files in English! Help... |
