Hi

Is anyone aware of a tagging utility that can automatically step through a directory and its subdirectories, using the folder name &/or existing tag info, discern the artist & title, look up the album on allmusic.com and then tag the respective fles utilising the allmusic info? I'm using Mp3tag v2.35 and the allmusic plugins at this stage, but was wondering whether there is a way to automate this.

Thx

Take a look at MusicBrainz (http://www.musicbrainz.org). They have a huge community-built database that links with their tagging program. It will scan your audio files and match them up to the correct track, then tag and rename your files for you.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have a look at it.
