I've been searching the internet for a proper app for OSX/Mac. I used to search for something that could measure up against Tag&Rename or mp3tag, but I've come to the conclusion that I need to give up on that. It seems most mac-users are happy with iTunes as their weapon of choice, but that simply doesn't cut it for me.
Basically what I would like as a minimum:
- Ability to revolve tags from filenames in a easy way (tried media-rage, but that's sooo difficulty to change the syntax every time a filename is build up in a different way, TnR does a way better job there)
- The ability to change to uppercase at the beginning of every word
- Batch processing of multiple files
- If possible support for both mp3 and flac, but that's not a show stopper anymore...

Those seem like pretty modest requirements

Pretty sure kid3 can do all of that.

There's also puddletag but I've not read of too much recent success getting it running on OS X Lion. Maybe that has changed recently, I dunno.

Wow, Kid3 is the tag editor I have been searching for! I have been using a combination of Tag, Musorg, Tagr, MusicBrainzPicard and MediaRage on the Mac, but each has its limitations. Looks like maybe I can streamline my work with one application.

There's no reason puddletag shouldn't run on Lion, so long as python and libraries on which puddletag is dependent are installed. If Python runs under Lion then so does puddletag.
Linux finally gets a great audio tagger: puddletag - now packaged in most Linux distributions.
