To edit multiple items at once in itunes, just select all the songs that
you wish to edit the album, arftist or genre on and then do get info.

OK, I hadn't seen it, but I now see that a "Get Info" on a file will
allow editing tags.
But does it, as xACT does for FLAC, allow batch editing. That is,
selecting a bunch of files and giving them all the same genre,
artist, etc?
