Name that software - ID3 tag generator?→[More:]
I remember some piece of software I used to use that would analyze mp3 files, connect to some online database, and automagically fill in the file's ID3 tag. I can't for the life of me remember what it was. iTunes just trashed my library and now half my music files are dumped at the bottom, unorganized because the tags went missing.

Anyone have an idea of what I'm thinking of?

The MusicBrainz software?

I use Musicbrainz.

It's not what I remember, but this is great! Thanks!

Now, if I just drop my whole music directory into it, will it skip the files that already have tags on them?

Tag & Rename is another one.

I can't remember how that musicbrainz stuff works, I only used it for a short while and didn't like it.

You know what would be good in iTunes? Tagging. Tagging would be awesome. Yes. I have decided.
